As Mark says, making a will for the first time is often perceived as a daunting prospect and his Gloucester clients have often waited several years before seeking professional advice. However, the benefits of making a will, or reviewing an existing will made some years ago, are numerous and may include:
- appointing guardians for younger children - so they are brought up by the people you want
- inheritance tax planning
- asset protection - planning for the possibility of moving to a care home
- living wills - statements dealing with end of life medical treatments
- lasting powers of attorney
- making sure the people you want to inherit, do inherit
For many Gloucester people the reasons for making a will are probably more compelling now than perhaps they may have been in the past. Complex family relationships are quite common nowadays and the law of intestacy often has undesirable consequences.
Mark has found that an increasing number of clients are expressing concerns about what will happen to their assets if they are forced to move into residential care. Mark can offer professional advice on the financial implications of moving into a care home and what steps can be taken to protect assets built up over a lifetime. Mark stresses however that it is important that estate planning is undertaken at an early stage. It is generally too late if the client is just about to move into care or if they have lost mental capacity to make decisions for themselves.
Meetings are conducted at the client's home but alternative arrangements can be made if necessary. A schedule of fees is normally provided in advance of the meeting and the initial consultation is without charge or obligation. A quote will be provided prior to taking instructions and payment is not requested until the prepared documents have been presented and approved.
