Will Writing

By making a Will you have control of what happens. If you leave everything to chance and you die intestate, the "intestacy rules" will apply. The rules will govern not only who benefits from your estate but also who is able to apply to be your personal representative.

I have worked with many clients helping them to put their plans in place. It really doesn't matter how big or small your estate is or what the assets are which you own.  I can assist you in ensuring that when that times comes the transition will be a smooth one and your wishes will be put in place.

I enjoy working with clients from carers to business owners.  As well as helping individuals with succession planning I have also worked with business owners and assisted with plans for their business should they die or in the event of them losing capacity, working with accountants to ensure sufficient life insurance is in place, advising on tax implications and corporate lawyers to review shareholder agreements and partnership agreements.

Lasting Power of Attorney

A Lasting Power of Attorney provides an opportunity to make provision in advance for the possibility of you becoming incapable of managing your own financial and welfare affairs. This is even more important now due to life expectancy increasing along with mental incapacity.

It may be that a close friend or relative has lost capacity.  They are no longer in a position where they can manage their own affairs.

If your friend or relative hasn't already put a Lasting Power of Attorney or Enduring Power of Attorney in place then it will be necessary to apply to the Court of Protection for you to be appointed as a Deputy.

Probate

When a loved-one dies there are many things to think about, as well as dealing with feelings of loss and grief.  Unfortunately one of those things is money. At Westons Wills and Probate we strive as far as possible to take that worry away.
