OUR SERVICES
WILLS - FOR YOU & YOUR FAMILY
We believe that having a Will is essential for everyone.
It's the best way to ensure that your possessions, savings, and personal treasures are passed on according to your wishes.
Without a Will, the government dictates the distribution of your estate, a situation you can easily avoid with our help. Plus, a Will allows you to appoint trusted Executors, ensuring your legacy is managed with the care it deserves.
LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY (LPA)
We guide you in creating a LPA, a crucial document that empowers your chosen 'Attorneys' to make decisions on your behalf if you're ever unable to.
We ensure your LPA is registered with the Office of Public Guardian, providing peace of mind that your affairs will be in trusted hands if needed. Remember, an LPA can only be established while you have the mental capacity to do so, making it a vital step in planning for your future with certainty and care.
PROPERTY &
OWNERSHIP
We specialise in transforming your property ownership to 'Tenants in Common', a savvy move that can significantly reduce Inheritance Tax liabilities and protect your equity.
This simple yet effective change ensures that each owner has a distinct share, providing financial security and peace of mind.
Our efficient process and affordable fees make it easy for you to safeguard your property investment for the future.

Stop Putting it Off
There are things we all avoid in life.
Things like clearing out the cupboard under the sink, sorting out those bookshelves and oh yes, making a Will.
Clearing out the cupboard may make things a little tidier but won't really have a great impact on our lives, but making a Will, well that certainly makes a difference.
I hear comments all the time like, I really must get a Will made, but not just at the moment. Or no, it's being morbid.
Back in 2014, on a Friday afternoon in January, I sat in our doctors surgery with my husband Robert. I can still hear the words ringing around my head as we heard that Robert had been diagnosed with a brain tumour.
After the initial shock, we decided that we were going to fight this but at the same time would take steps to make provisions should the worst happen.
We weren't being morbid, we were being practical.
It's now 2018 and Robert is really no further forward despite having surgeries, treatment etc. The tumour remains and is still troublesome.
I urge you to have a think about your will. Making a Will isn't about you. It's about those you leave behind. In their distress you have the opportunity to provide clarity and guidance.
So don't put if off any longer. Make a Will today.
