It's way too easy to put off making a will until tomorrow, next month or even next year. The problem is that we never know what's around the corner. While we may not like talking about it, it's vitally important to plan ahead as levels of stress, expense and delay can be heightened. Make sure you have the right legal protection in place so that your wishes are respected.
If you have an accident or fall ill, you may think that your spouse/relatives can make decisions for you if you are unable to. However, this isn't the case. A Lasting Power of Attorney is critical in ensuring those you trust with your life have the authority and poer to make those decisions in the event you are unable to do so.
A Protective Property Trust enables you to leave a share of your home to you children in your Will. It stops your share of your home being diverted away, whilst at the same time giving your spouse/partner the legal protection they need. It gives peace of mind and can help achieve fairness, and additionally reduce the risk of family conflict or protracted legal battles.
