Wills

With a Will in place you can relax safe in the knowledge that your wishes will be carried out should anything happen to you. Making a Will now also avoids legal problems arising for your family in the future. Often people assume that their money and possessions will automatically pass to their partners or children, but without a Will this isn’t always the case.

At Brett Holt Solicitors, our lawyers have in-depth knowledge in all areas of Wills and Will making and can help you create a Will that’s right for you and your family. Don’t worry if you’ve never discussed Wills before. Our friendly solicitors will put you at ease, explaining everything clearly with no legal jargon.

So whether you’d like to create a Will or would just like to find out more about our will writing service, call us today on 020 8337 0174 to have a chat with one of our specialist solicitors. You can also use the form on the right to send us a message.

Lasting Power of Attorney

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that allows another person to make decisions about your wellbeing and affairs on your behalf should an accident, or ill health, prevent you from making decisions in the future.

Appointing an attorney in advance of any difficulty gives you the peace of mind that someone you have chosen will be able to help you manage your affairs in time of difficulty. It is not possible to create an LPA once you are unable to make your own decisions. So if you think you would like an LPA, it is something that should consider putting in place as soon as possible.

There are two types of LPA. One for protecting your health and welfare decisions and one for your financial decisions. To be valid, an LPA must be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG).

At Brett Holt Solicitors we can help with all aspects of creating an LPA - from choosing an attorney and deciding what type of LPA is right for you, to correctly registering the documentation with the OPG.

If you’d like to find out more, give one of our expert solicitors a call today on 020 8337 0174, or use the contact form on this page.
