Wills, Probate, Tax and Trusts for the Care Sector
Our Wills, Probate, Tax & Trusts team understand the unique legal needs of care homes, residents, and their families.
More about Wills, Probate, Tax and Trusts for the Care Sector
Our dedicated team offers a comprehensive range of services to ensure your residents receive the best possible care while their wishes and financial security are protected.
Planning for the Future
We guide residents and their families through the creation of Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) to appoint trusted individuals to manage their financial and healthcare decisions if they lose mental capacity. We can also assist with Wills and Inheritance Tax planning to minimise the tax burden on loved ones.
Addressing Mental Capacity Issues
If a resident lacks mental capacity and hasn’t made an LPA, we can help navigate the Court of Protection to appoint a deputy. This process can be lengthy and stressful, so we strive to minimise delays and ensure a smooth transition.
Probate and Estate Administration
We handle the legal complexities of probate, efficiently administering estates and ensuring assets are distributed according to the deceased’s wishes.
Expert Guidance and Support
Our team includes members of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP) and the Association of Lifetime Lawyers, providing exceptional expertise in these areas. We offer clear, jargon-free explanations to empower you with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions.
