Wills & Estate Planning

Nobody likes to think about making Wills, going into a Home or losing mental capacity but these things cannot be ignored without storing up problems for your family. Like an umbrella, you don't want to use it but you're glad you have one!

With out long experience in this work there aren't many problems we haven't seen before and we can give you sound advice on all aspects of estate planning.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU

We aim to provide a dedicated first class service to give you peace of mind for the future. We pride ourselves on the personal service we offer our clients. As a small firm we have a closer relationship with our clients than do many of the huge law firms now increasingly common, in many cases we have come to act for several generations in families because of this approach.

WHAT IS ESTATE PLANNING?

Well, of course making a Will is a priority. If you don't have one the law sets out what happens to your estate and you might not like the results of this. Make a Will and YOU decide where your money goes.

Also a Will can:

• reduce Inheritance Tax
• shield your home from care fees

Other things you need to consider:

• Power of Attorney
• Living Will

We also specialise in this work and also:

• winding up estates (probate)
• trust work
• tax advice
• probate litigation

WHAT DOES IT COST?

We don't claim to be the cheapest but the best rarely is. Our fees are fair and realistic. You will know upfront what will be the cost with no nasty surprises later.

WHAT NEXT?

We are ready to deal with any matters of this kind for you and guide you through the whole process.
