Wills
Making a Will ensures that your money, property, and possessions are passed on according to your wishes. We can help you prepare a Will and organise your affairs in a straightforward and tax-efficient way, giving you and your family security for the future.
Probate
We offer support and guidance through the probate process, from obtaining a Grant of Probate to managing the administration of an estate. Our team will handle all aspects, including resolving claims and distributing assets in accordance with the Will.
If a loved one has died without making a Will (known as dying intestate), we can obtain Letters of Administration and deal with the distribution of the estate on your behalf.
Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA)
A Lasting Power of Attorney allows you to appoint someone you trust to make decisions about your finances, property, health and welfare if you become unable to do so yourself. We can prepare and register LPAs to ensure your wishes are respected and your interests are protected.
Court of Protection
If someone close to you has lost mental capacity and has not made an LPA, we can assist with applications to the Court of Protection. This includes helping relatives or carers obtain the necessary authority to make important decisions about that person’s finances or care.
