Our approach
We start by understanding your family structure, assets, and wishes. We then draft documents that are clear, valid, and tailored to your circumstances. If your matter is complex, we advise on strategies to reduce the risk of a future dispute.
Common questions
Do I need a solicitor to make a will?
You can make a will without a solicitor, but a poorly drafted will is often challenged or delayed. We make sure the will is valid, unambiguous, and matched to your assets.
What is an enduring power of attorney?
It is a document that appoints someone to handle your financial and legal affairs if you lose capacity. It is different from a general power of attorney and remains valid after you lose capacity.
How often should I update my will?
We recommend reviewing your will every 3 to 5 years, or sooner after major life events such as marriage, separation, the birth of a child, or significant changes in assets.
