Wills, trusts and probate
Making a will is very important. If you don’t have a will when you die, your money, property and possessions will be shared out according to the law instead of your wishes. This can mean they pass to someone you hadn’t intended – or that someone you want to pass things on to ends up with nothing. We’re here to help make things easier.
Making it easier for the loved ones you leave behind
Whether you feel your needs are straightforward or that you may require specialist advice, our professional and friendly team have dedicated specialists who will take a sympathetic and personal approach to helping you. It is important that your Will keeps pace with the changes in life and also that it represents your true intentions to avoid anguish for your loved ones at a later date.
We offer home visits if it is more convenient for you and we appreciate it is important to take the time to understand your wishes and to discuss and advise you on all the options available to you.
