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 Gordon Brown 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 Enduring 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.
Enduring Power of Attorney
An Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA) 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, an EPA can continue to be valid even if the individual
("the Donor") becomes mentally incapable. This is subject
to the Power being registered.
