Services
Will Writing
Our Will Writing service ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes while minimising inheritance tax and care fee risks. We provide home visits to discuss your specific needs, creating legally binding documents tailored to your family situation. With competitive pricing and clear guidance, we help clients avoid common pitfalls like intestacy laws and unintended guardianship.
Trusts
Trusts allow controlled distribution of assets to beneficiaries, particularly useful for complex family situations or vulnerable individuals. We design bespoke trusts to protect inheritances from risks like addiction or disability, ensuring funds are used appropriately. Our consultants explain different trust structures during home visits, helping clients choose solutions that align with long-term estate planning goals.
Lasting Power of Attorney
This service enables you to appoint trusted individuals to manage your affairs if you lose capacity. We guide clients through creating Property & Financial Affairs and Health & Welfare LPA documents, ensuring legal compliance. Our consultants explain registration processes and associated fees, helping families avoid court interventions during difficult times.
Children's Provisions
We help parents designate legal guardians and manage inheritance for minors through flexible trusts. Our consultants advise on appropriate inheritance ages and controlled fund access for education or healthcare needs. This service ensures children's financial security while preventing premature asset dissipation, with tailored solutions discussed during home consultations.
Property Trusts
Property Trusts protect jointly owned homes from care fees and ensure assets pass to intended beneficiaries. We advise couples on mitigating risks when remarrying, creating structures that balance spousal benefits with children's inheritance rights. Our home visits include detailed explanations of how trusts can preserve property value across generations.
Questions
Why should I make a Will?
A Will ensures your assets go to intended beneficiaries, appoints legal guardians for children, and minimises inheritance tax risks while avoiding state-determined distributions.
What happens if I don't have a Lasting Power of Attorney?
Without LPA, the Court of Protection would make decisions about your finances and healthcare, potentially causing delays and emotional strain for loved ones.
How do trusts protect my children's inheritance?
Trusts control when and how beneficiaries receive assets, preventing premature access while allowing funds to be used for education or healthcare needs as specified.
Can I update my Will after creation?
Yes, we offer review services to keep your Will current with changing circumstances, family dynamics, or legislative updates affecting estate planning.
What areas do you cover?
We provide home visits across England and Wales from our offices in Camberley, Bournemouth, Southampton, and London.
