At Parker Bird Gardner Solicitors we have an experienced team of Solicitors and Legal Advisors to assist you with the making of a Will. Although many of us still do not have an up to date Will, the consequences of dying without a Will can be serious as your property and affairs may not be distributed as you want it to be. We are also able to help you with the administration of an estate which can often be complicated and unfamiliar. Our experience enables us to administer the estate quickly, efficiently and without complications.
Who will control your finances and make decisions on your behalf if you became incapable of doing so?
If you become unable to manage your own affairs then your next of kin would have to apply to the Court of Protection for permission to take over your affairs and to make decisions on your behalf. This can be a lengthy and expensive procedure. A lasting Power of Attorney enables you to decide now who you wish to deal with your affairs, should you become incapable of doing so. The Power of Attorney does not come into effect until the situation arises where you are unable to manage your own affairs. By obtaining the Power of Attorney now you will avoid the expense and distress of your family having to pursue a complex procedure through the Court of Protection. If you would like some information about the lasting Power of Attorney, please do not hesitate to contact us for more information. |
