Whether you’re a professional, an entrepreneur or self-employed, you’ve worked hard for what you’ve got, so make sure your assets end up where you intend them to.Having a Will is vital if you have a spouse, a civil partner, children, grandchildren or other significant loved ones, so you should already have one in place. However, you might assume that having a Will ensures your wishes will be followed after you've gone. Unfortunately, life always has curve balls to throw, and your Will may not be adequate for the new situation. These are just a couple of many examples that clients have told me about — • Arthur and Jenny had perfectly valid Wills, but 88% of their estate ended up in the wrong hands.• Brian received nothing from his parents' £1m estate, in spite of their intentions — it all went to a stranger, instead.I offer expert advice and help on a wide range of services:• I'll help you create a Will that ensures your assets will go exactly where you want and that tax liabilities will be minimised.• If you already have a Will, I offer a free check to ensure it still meets your needs.• I offer clear advice and guidance on how trusts can be used in conjunction with your Will to ensure your hard-earned assets are fully protected for the benefit of your children and grandchildren.• I help you set up a Lasting Power of Attorney to ensure that, if you should ever become incapacitated and unable to make decisions, crucial decision-making can pass seamlessly to someone you trust.• If you have elderly relatives, you can help them protect their interests in the same way.Which of these do you need to protect your legacy for your loved ones?
