Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of our FAQs
Do I need more than just a Will?
In most cases, yes. A Will handles what happens after you die – but LPAs and Trusts can protect you and your family during your lifetime too.
Can you help with Inheritance Tax planning?
Yes, we’ll help you understand what your potential liability is and whether there are ways to reduce it.
Is this just for older people?
Not at all. Life can be unpredictable, and planning early gives you the most protection and peace of mind.
How do we start the process?
After a brief telephone chat, we can arrange a meeting. This can be in the comfort of your home, at our office, via video call or simply on the telephone.
What happens if I dont make an estate plan?
If you die without a valid Will, your estate will be distributed according to the laws of intestacy – which may not reflect your wishes. Without LPAs, no one can legally act on your behalf if you lose capacity, meaning your family may need to apply to the Court of Protection, which is time-consuming and costly.
Can I update my Will if I need to?
Yes. We recommend reviewing your estate plan regularly – especially after major life changes like marriage, divorce, children, or buying property. We offer a review service to make sure your documents always reflect your current wishes..
How long does the process take?
Most Wills and LPAs can be completed in 2 to 4 weeks, depending on your availability and the complexity of your estate. We’ll keep things as simple and efficient as possible, while giving you all the support you need along the way. Please note that LPA registrations can take longer due to the Office of the Public Guardian..
