Estate Planning

Protecting Your Family Through Estate Planning

When people think of estate planning, they often picture wealthy retirees with multiple properties. The reality is very different. Estate planning isn’t about wealth - it’s about protecting the people you care about most.

If you don’t plan ahead, the law decides what happens to your estate, which may not reflect your wishes. This can leave families facing delays, legal costs, and disputes at an already difficult time.

Why a Will Isn’t Enough

A Will is the foundation of an estate plan, setting out who inherits your assets, who will manage your estate, and who cares for your children if they are under 18. Yet life changes - moving house, marriage, grandchildren - mean that even if you already have a Will, it should be reviewed regularly.

A Will also cannot cover everything. For example, if you lose mental capacity, who makes decisions about your health, care, or finances? Without proper planning, your loved ones may need to go through the courts, which is stressful and expensive.

What Estate Planning Includes

• A Will - To set out your wishes clearly.
• Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) - Appoint people you trust to make decisions if you’re unable to.
• Guardianship - Ensure children under 18 are cared for by the right people.
• Organising assets - From pensions and insurance to digital accounts and sentimental belongings.
• Recording your wishes - Such as funeral preferences or personal messages.
