• A Lasting Power of Attorney can be made for both your financial decisions and your health and care decisions if you lose capacity to make such decisions yourself.  We can explain more about LPAs, why they were introduced and the decisions that can be made by your Attorneys. 
• There are many ways you can safeguard your property and financial assets for the future through the use of Trusts.  By coming to us, you will have the benefit of our years of experience in discussing the variety of trusts available to you and the different benefits that may suit you and your family. 
• The laws are complicated when it comes to Inheritance Tax and it is important you know the impact this can have on your family now, so you can adequately prepare and make the right decisions now.  
• Your property is likely to be the largest asset at your disposal, and it is therefore imperative you protect it for your future as well as future generations.  We can help advise you as to the different types of property ownership there are and which is appropriate for you, as well as ways you can safeguard your money if you decide to help a child onto the property ladder.
