Wills

The implications of not having a Will or not having updated your Will when circumstances change, can be costly and cause distress to your loved ones.
Today’s relationships can be quite complicated; however our Client Care Team in Lincoln are experienced in all aspects of Legal Services for the family.
Our team have written over 130,000 Wills and there really isn’t anything we can’t help you with.

Making Your Own Will – what you control

You choose your own Executors and Trustees.
You choose what are your children or Grandchildren will inherit.
You document who you want to be guardians of your children.
You decide who inherits from your estate, and not the Rules of Intestacy.
You determine who does not inherit from your estate.
You can leave specific gifts, legacies, and charitable donations.
You specify your funeral wishes.
You can document your Organ Donation preferences.

Lasting Power of Attorney

Dementia is a growing challenge, it is a tragedy should we, through illness or accident, lose the ability to make decisions for ourselves.
A Lasting Power of Attorney is a vital document which gives family members, or trusted
advisors, authority to handle the financial affairs of a loved one in need or make decisions on their health and well being.

Will voucher issued once 3 premiums have been paid from your policy. As we aim to build long lasting relationships with our clients all we ask is that if we cover the cost of your Will, if any major changes happen (such as marriage, divorce, birth of child, new mortgage etc) that require you to change or amend your policy in the first 4 years, that you give us first refusal.

Should we not hear back from you, after 2 years we will automatically get in touch to offer a free no obligation review to ensure you have peace of mind that you’re still on the correct plan for your circumstances. If you cancel your plans and go eleswhere for cover in the first 4 years all we ask is that you reimburse the cost of your Will up to the value of *£195. *Single Will £130, Mirror Will £195.

If you haven't already made a Will then you should read this. Because without a Will you will die intestate, which means...

THE GOVERNMENT – decides who gets your money and your property.
MARRIED COUPLES AND CIVIL PARTNERS – the law sets financial limits as to how much your spouse or civil partner can receive. As such, even though you may want ‘everything’ to pass to your spouse/civil partner, there is no provision to guarantee this will happen.
COUPLES LIVING TOGETHER – the law currently makes no provision for unmarried partners to inherit anything from each other and so the surviving partner could receive nothing at all. This is regardless of whether or not you have children together.
PARENTS – without a Will the authorities could be involved in deciding who will care for and raise your children.

SEPARATED COUPLES – your spouse may inherit all, or a significant share, of your estate, even if you have been separated for many years.
INHERITANCE TAX – the rules of intestacy make no provision for mitigating Inheritance tax.
TIME & COMPLICATIONS – an estate can take longer to administer when a valid Will isn’t in place and without your guidance and planning, complications can occur. This can also create tensions within your family as known wishes may not be carried out.
PERSONAL ITEMS – without a Will there is no guarantee who will receive those important family items.
