Wills & Personal
Estate Planning
Ensuring that your children
and other chosen beneficiaries
will inherit your wealth, regardless
of what the future may hold,
is important. So is making sure
that the value of the family
home is protected from hostile
creditors or unnecessary Inheritance
Tax. After all, would you prefer
the Revenue & Customs to
be the biggest beneficiary of
your hard earned assets? Without
professional guidance, much
of your hard-earned money might
end up in the wrong hands or
be lost completely.
Taking professional advice on
the drafting of your Will, and
updating it regularly as your
circumstances change, is the
only way to be sure that your
wishes will be known and your
family fully safeguarded.
Also, by drawing up Lasting
Powers of Attorney, you will
be providing a lifeline by appointing
someone you trust to help you
if, through sickness or accident,
you cannot handle your own affairs.
Lasting Power of Attorney
A Lasting Power of Attorney
(LPA) is a legal document that,
in case of need, enables an
individual to appoint other
people to handle his or her
financial affairs. Unlike a
simple Power of Attorney, A
Lasting Power of Attorney can
continue to be valid even if
the individual ("the Donor")
becomes mentally incapable.
This is subject to the Power
being registered.
