Steve’s approach is straightforward and client-focused, providing clear legal guidance in a relaxed and friendly manner. Whether you're planning for the future or need urgent advice, he ensures that your legal affairs are in order with minimal hassle.


Why You Need a Lasting Power of Attorney

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows you to appoint someone you trust to manage your affairs if you're unable to do so yourself due to illness, accident, or declining mental capacity. Without an LPA in place, decisions about your finances and wellbeing could be made by the Court of Protection rather than by those you trust.

There are two types of LPAs:

  • Health & Welfare LPA – Authorises someone you trust to make medical and personal care decisions on your behalf, including where you live and the treatments you receive.
  • Property & Financial Affairs LPA – Grants authority to manage your financial matters, such as bank accounts, property transactions, and bill payments.

LPAs are not just for the elderly—anyone over 18 should have one in place to protect their interests. Business owners may also require two LPAs to cover personal and company finances.

Key Benefits of an LPA:

✔ Appoint people you trust to make decisions on your behalf.
✔ Prevent court-appointed solicitors from taking control of your affairs.
✔ Avoid costly and time-consuming legal processes in the future.
✔ Maintain peace of mind knowing your wishes will be respected.

The process takes several months to complete, so don’t delay—start planning today.


Specialist Will Writing Services

Writing a Will ensures that your assets are distributed according to your wishes. Many people overlook this essential step or assume a Will is a one-time task. However, laws change, and old tax-saving Wills can now increase Inheritance Tax bills by up to £140,000.

Steve offers expert advice on:

  • Drafting and updating Wills
  • Trusts and Inheritance Tax planning
  • Ensuring your estate is handled correctly

If you need to make or update a Will, The Professional Will Writer can help you navigate the process smoothly.
