A will enables you to decide and direct what will happen to your money, assets, investments and possessions upon your passing away.
For more complex and wealthier estates, estate planning is essential to make sure your wealth is protected for you and your family. By structuring your assets, you can make sure everyone is provided for in the future. Lasting powers of attorney have become increasingly common and essential in recent years. A will only takes effect on death, whereas the lasting powers of attorney provide protection to you and your loved ones during your lifetime, should you lose mental capacity due to illness or accident. We deal with simple or disputed probate matters, acting for potential beneficiaries, third party dependants or the deceased. Where the mental capacity of the client is in question, we can assist with court of protection matters.
