Wills
Failure to make a Will can leave legal and financial problems for your loved ones in the event of your death. Making a will ensures that your estate is dealt with in accordance with your wishes and can avoid the legal and financial uncertainty which you may otherwise leave behind.
It is essential, when making a Will, that the correct legal formalities are met. If the legal formalities are not dealt with correctly, a Will may be invalid and of no effect. Worse still, the defective Will could raise complex and expensive legal issues for your loved ones to have to sort out.
We can provide clear advice, and prepare your Will so that it complies with all necessary legal formalities.
Probate & Administration of Estates
We can advise in connection with all stages of the administration of an estate including, if required, obtaining a Grant of Probate or, if there is no Will, the legal position arising from the intestacy. As a death in the family is an emotional time, we can deal with the legal issues which arise expertly, and give practical and sympathetic advice at this difficult time.
Change of Name
There are many circumstances in which a person may wish to change their name. We can advise on the legal aspects and prepare the necessary documentation to evidence any name change.
Powers of Attorney
If you wish to appoint someone to act as your Attorney, or are considering whether you should do so, we can advise on the legal effect of granting a Power of Attorney and prepare all necessary documentation.
