Wouldn't it make life a lot easier if you could engage a trusted and knowledgeable individual to help you with end of life planning, either for yourself or your loved one? Now you can. Getting older brings a seemingly never-ending stream of difficult decisions. Dealing with failing health or mental capacity brings practical challenges with living arrangements, changing care needs and financial decision-making. After that, planning for end of life means thinking about funeral costs and arrangements as well as ensuring wishes are followed regarding the estate after death. For some individuals or families, it makes sense to take advantage of independent specialised help to ensure that what happens meets with individual hopes and wishes. From professional support with the legalities such as a lasting power of attorney or writing a will to more personal guidance and advice on dealing with social services or whether to sell a home before or after death, to practical arrangements such as funeral planning - a broad range of assistance is required. We offer advice and services for Estate Planning; Inheritance Tax Planning; Trusts; and preparation and filing of Lasting Power of Attorney Documents. We provide our services to Executors and Personal Representatives navigating Probate. We can advise on planning for Long Term Care and facilitate the purchase of Prepaid Funeral Plans. Costs are on a fixed fee basis and agreed before work is carried out for you. Contact us to arrange an appointment in your own home.
