Wills & Probate
Wills
We have acted for generations of families in the administration of their estates and the drafting of wills.
Making and reviewing a will gives you the comfort of knowing that your loved ones will benefit from your estate when you are gone as you would have wanted.
A will gives you control over how your affairs are managed.
Failing to make a will might result in loved ones losing out especially if you are not married.
We can advise you about tax planning to help you limit the amount of inheritance tax that your estate is liable to pay on death.
We are experienced in the variation of wills post death to limit or delay the payment of inheritance tax.
Many clients prefer to have a professional such as a solicitor as one of the executors of the estate, someone who is not personally involved and can help with decisions that are hard for family members to make at such a difficult time.
A member of our specialist team can visit you at your home, in the hospital or care home if a visit to our offices is impossible. Our elderly clients are treated with the utmost care and respect.
