The subject of death is something we all do our best to try and avoid, but the truth is that of the 2700 people that die every day in the UK, almost three quarters will not have made a Will.

However small your estate, it is vital that a Will is always left, so that your wishes are set out in black and white. In addition if you die without a Will your spouse DOES NOT necessarily inherit everything and intestacy can mean that Inheritance Tax is substantial.

At Redfearns we are here to help and advise you on all aspects of making a Will including:

• Preparation of Wills;
• Obtaining Probate;
• Estate Administration;
• Charitable Gifts;
• Settlement and Trusts;
• Inheritance Tax and Capital Gains Tax;
• Guardianship.

Planning ahead by arranging a Lasting Power of Attorney gives you peace of mind that someone you trust can make decisions on your behalf should you become unable to do so. We can advise you on both Property and Financial Affairs, and Health and Welfare LPAs guiding you through the process with clear, practical advice and ensuring your wishes are properly protected.
