The Probate and
Trusts team at Shawcross have many years experience and can help you
with all aspects of Wills, Enduring Powers of Attorney and the
Administration of Estates.
Wills
We are able to
offer advice on all types of Wills and this can include Inheritance Tax
Planning if necessary.
A simple Will is
inexpensive and can save many of the complications brought about by
intestacy and in some cases residential care. A will can also allow you
to appoint to appoint a guardian to take care of your children in the
event of your death.
Enduring Powers of Attorney
These documents are
becoming increasingly popular to enable you to appoint a trustworthy relative, friend
or professional person to manage your affairs if you are for instance
overseas or elderly. The procedure is simple and comparatively
inexpensive.
Administration of Estates
When someone dies
it is usually necessary to obtain a Grant of Letters of Administration
(if they have died intestate), or a Grant of Probate (if there is a
Will).
Depending on the
value of the estate we offer advice as to the best way of administering
the estate. On occasion it is possible to vary the terms of the
Will which can be tax effective for beneficiaries. |
