We cover all of Devon and Cornwall. Please do not fall for the so called 'cheap wills'. Even Charities often send people from outside of the area with little or no knowledge of Estate Planning then they push you to buy other products that you often do not need nor want. Sometimes amounting to thousands of pounds.Stop and think, nobody is going to visit you , spend time discussing your individual situation, offer professional advice then bring the Will back to you for signing with us witnessing the Will, for £45. The figures just do not add up. So use a reliable local business with many years experience and a friendly manner. We spend as much time as it takes to get your Will right and ensure when you pass your assets pass to the person you want to benefit. Remember, Spouses, children and especially partners DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY INHERIT. Call 01752 770094 for a free friendly discussion.

Nobody wants to think about making a Will but sadly it is the kindest thing to do for your loved ones. So many people think that all their Estate will automatically pass to their spouse/partner, this is not always so. Sadly at a time of death, people are very emotional, and emotions are high often resulting in an argument with siblings, parents and children etc. A Will is the only way to ensure what YOU want happens. A straightforward Will laying out clearly what you want to happen to your possessions and assets is the only way to ensure the people you want to inherit do so.
A death will also often result in an argument about what to do with the body after death, cremation, burial, religious service, non fuss etc etc. Just by stating what you want all those family quarrels can be avoided. Contact us on 01752 770094 and we can explain the procedure to you. By being a member of the Society of Will Writers we have to adhere to the very strict code of conduct by the Society. Don't take a risk on people visiting you from miles away often with the lure of a cheap Will, they will never leave without signing you up for unneeded trusts or other things you neither need nor want and that so called cheap will ends up being very expensive. We will visit you in your own home with a price quoted and stuck to. We look forward to hearing from you.

Nobody wants to think about writing a Will but it is essential. The only way you can guarantee that your assets pass to who you want them to is to make a legally binding Will. Don't fall into the trap of thinking everything you own will automatically pass to your spouse or partner that is not necessarily so. But more importantly a Will is the only way to stop certain people from having a share of your assets. You may have been estranged from your child/spouse for many years, but without a will they will have a claim on your estate. Ring us today 01752 770094 and talk through your options.

PROPERTY PROTECTION TRUSTS can easily be written into a Will. This ensures that if one partner passes their share of the joint property passes to whoever they want it to. The surviving partner still lives in the property, enjoys every aspect of it, including selling and buying another but when the second death occurs the first share always goes to the person's choice. It also means that if the surviving partner needs care, funds from first partner's share cannot be used. Contact us on [email protected] for further details.

LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY. I am sure there are so many of you out there who are saying, 'oh I am far too young to think about that'. WRONG. Everyone needs a Lasting Power of Attorney, more especially for Health and Welfare. If you end up in a situation that the hospital/medical profession feel you do not have total mental capacity for whatever reason ( serious illness, heart attack, stroke, accident etc) then if you do not have a LPA in place the Social Services will take decisions for you. If you are doubting me take a look at this

You may of heard of a Property Protection Trust. These are very useful tools to ensure that once you have past, your share of a property will only go to whom you wish. If you leave your share of the property to your spouse/partner, they can easily become remarried, or even in the worse scenario become groomed by unscrupulous people as they get older. The end result is that your children or people you want to have a share in the proceeds of the property when you have both passed will miss out completely. By having a PROPERTY PROTECTION TRUST written into your Will, together with a LIFE INTEREST TRUST for your co-owner (means the other partner cannot be put out of the property until their death) you will know that the end proceeds will go to who you want them to. Talk to us and find out the benefits today.

MARTIN LEWIS from Money saving expert states again that everyone needs a will and a lasting power of attorney. I have people come to me because their doctors/health professionals have told them to get a Lasting Power of Attorney. If you should lose your mental capacity through illness or dementia the medical officers do not always listen to your spouse/children when deciding upon treatment. More importantly nor do the Social Services when deciding where you should reside after a spell in hospital. Don't leave it to chance appoint your family as your representatives with a Lasting Power of Attorney that way they will be the people who make the decisions on your behalf. We can come to you and complete the application, submit it to the Office of the Public Guardian and follow it through until it is approved. You cannot make a LPA if you have lost your mental capacity so please do not wait until you need one, get one now. It is a kindness to your love ones as it will avoid any arguments or problems. Ring us on 01752 770094 and we can explain everything to you.

HAVE YOU BEEN WATCHING MARTIN LEWIS? DID YOU HEAR HIM SAY EVERYONE NEEDS LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEYS? He is quite right. Everyone can benefit from Lasting Power of Attorney. You do not have to be rich or hold great assets to benefit from these. FINANCE AND PROPERTY LPA allows somebody you trust to help you with the above if you find it difficult or impossible to do so yourself. Do you realise not even the utility companies will allow anyone to talk on your behalf if you do not have a LPA? Banks, investment companies all demand a LPA for anyone to act on your behalf. What do you do if your ISA or Bond matures, what happens if you find it hard to interpret. All of these things can be taken care of by somebody you trust if you have a LPA. IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT SOMEBODY ELSE WILL HAVE SOLE CONTROL. The Attorney/Attorneys you appoint can only act if you request them to do so or if you lose your mental capacity. Either long term or short term (for example if you have a stroke/heart attack/receive heavy medication. But as long as you have mental capacity YOU REMAIN IN CONTROL. Please do not wait til you need one as they can take anything from 4 months to 12 months. Do it now.
