A Will is a legal document that specifies how your assets should be distributed after your death and who should be responsible for carrying out your wishes. It allows you to appoint executors, guardians for minor children, and make specific gifts to individuals or charities.

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that allows you to appoint one or more people (called attorneys) to make decisions on your behalf if you lose mental capacity. There are two main types of LPA, each covering different aspects of your life.
Any individual aged 18 or over who has mental capacity can create an LPA. You must understand the nature and scope of the authority you're granting to your attorneys.
When selecting attorneys, consider individuals who are trustworthy, reliable, and capable of making decisions in your best interests. You can appoint family members, friends, or professionals. Many people choose to appoint more than one attorney to act jointly or jointly and severally.
LPAs must be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian before they can be used. The registration process typically takes 8-10 weeks. We manage this process on your behalf, ensuring all documentation is correctly completed and submitted.

A Family Asset Protection Trust (FAPT) is a legal arrangement that allows you to place assets into a trust during your lifetime while maintaining a degree of control. The trust owns the assets, but you can benefit from them during your lifetime while protecting them for your chosen beneficiaries.
An FAPT may be suitable if you:
Without FAPT: Mr. Smith requires residential care. The local authority conducts a means test and includes the family home in their assessment. Mrs. Smith is forced to sell the property to fund care costs, significantly reducing the inheritance for their children.
With FAPT: The Smiths placed their property in a Family Asset Protection Trust. When Mr. Smith requires care, only his personal assets are assessed. The property, held in trust, is protected and remains available for Mrs. Smith to live in, eventually passing to their children according to the trust terms.
Family Asset Protection Trusts require specialist advice. Book a consultation to determine if this solution is appropriate for your circumstances.
