You may have heard the term Estate Planning but you could be forgiven for not really knowing what it means.

The basic premise is that it is to make sure your family is taken care of if something happens to you.

For many people this can mean financial planning, lifetime gifts, drafting a Will and setting up Lasting Powers of Attorney.

For some, perhaps those of more modest means, it may simply mean writing a Will to distibute their estate e.g. leaving everything to their surviving spouse or partner and then on to their children.

For those with more substantial wealth the avoidance of Inheritance Tax (IHT) may become an important issue. This can be achieved in a number of ways e.g. ‘jumping a generation’ by making legacies to grandchildren.

A Lasting Power of Attorney allows you to name a person or persons you trust to make decisions about your health care and/or finances if you get sick and can’t you make these decisions by yourself.

You should do this now – not later.

The home visit Will service is available in Berkshire, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Oxfordshire, Somerset and Wiltshire.
