Despite their importance, Wills are one of the most overlooked legal documents in the UK. Many people assume that they simply don't need a Will and that any assets will automatically be passed down to family once they pass.

Wills

Report

Your Will is a legal document put in place to coordinate your assets in the event of your death. A Will also allow you to appoint guardians for your children as well as specify how you wish for your property and possessions to be distributed once you die. You must appoint at least one executor if you need a Will; this is the person who will be responsible for ensuring that the contents of your Will are managed exactly as you wanted.

Trusts

Report

Put simply, a trust fund is a way of protecting your assets to ensure financial stability for your loved ones. When you put assets in a trust, they are under the control of an appointed person or persons known as trustees. The trustees are responsible for managing this trust in line with your instructions.

Lasting Power Of Attorney

Report

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document appointing one, or more, trusted people to act as your attorney. By appointing a Lasting Power of Attorney, this person is then responsible for making decisions on your behalf. This type of LPA gives an attorney the authority to make decisions regarding things like future medical care and life-sustaining treatment.
