The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate taxation and trust advice, will writing or Lasting Power of Attorney's (LPA)
A will talks about your worth after you’ve died. It allows you to provide for funeral costs and you can decide who gets your assets. This is important as, if you die without a will, your estate will be divided according to intestacy law. This means your estate will be divided by pre-defined rules amongst your relatives.
Creating a will is essential if you want to control who gets your assets after your death and, if you have children under 18, your will states who will become responsible for them.
Both the will and LPA are essential for you to maintain control of your finances if you become mentally incapacitated or die. It’s not just about making sure the right people get your money. Alongside assisting with your will, we can offer our estate planning service which can save your estate tax and let your designated heirs access your funds faster.
A will tells everyone what you want done with your money and estate after you die. It dictates who gets what. Most importantly, a will is a legally binding document, which means your wishes must be followed, even if that involves giving all your money away.
An LPA allows you to dictate who will make decisions for you if you become mentally incapacitated. Most people choose a family member but you can choose to give anyone this power. We can help you decide and can create the document for you.
