Document being signedWills, Probate & Trusts

Wills

It is important to make a Will to ensure that your wishes are carried out on your death. If you do not make a Will there are strict rules for determining who will inherit your estate.

We make each Will individually taking into consideration your family, financial position, Inheritance Tax and, of course, your wishes.

Living Wills

In this present day more emphasis is being placed on the right to choose between being kept alive on a life support machine and having the right to die. We can discuss and prepare for you a Living Will which can be used as evidence of your wishes in respect of medical care at a time when you may not be well enough to communicate your wishes to your family or medical attendants.

Probate

After a death it is important to those who are left behind that the estate is administered with sympathy as well as with efficiency.

We will deal with the necessary legal formalities in the application for Probate or Letters of Administration and assist and advise you in the administration of the estate.

Trusts

In some cases a trust may be created by the Will. In others, it may be created during a person's lifetime. In either case we can assist in the setting up and administration of the trust.

Powers of Attorney

Powers of Attorney are normally made to enable relatives, friends or professional advisers to administer the affairs of elderly or infirm persons who, for whatever reason, are unwilling or unable to manage their own affairs We can prepare the document on your behalf and help you with any procedural steps which may need to be taken.
