Services
Wills
Our will writing service ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes while minimising inheritance tax. We provide tailored advice on appointing guardians for children, selecting executors, and creating trusts. Our Society of Will Writers membership guarantees professionally drafted documents that protect your family's future.
Trusts
We create bespoke trusts to protect assets across generations, reduce tax liabilities, and manage inheritance for vulnerable beneficiaries. Our STEP-affiliated experts advise on various trust structures to ensure your wealth passes to intended recipients without unnecessary legal complications or HMRC involvement.
Powers of Attorney
Our LPAs enable appointed attorneys to manage financial and healthcare decisions during incapacity. We help establish legally binding documents that specify your preferences for medical treatment and asset management, avoiding costly court interventions when planning ahead.
Probate
We guide executors through probate processes, handling tax calculations, asset distribution, and court applications. Our fixed-fee service simplifies estate administration while ensuring compliance with legal requirements, protecting personal representatives from potential liabilities during complex bereavement periods.

Through our sister company My Life Dox, we offer secure document storage with retrieval guarantees. Clients benefit from 24/7 protection through partner facilities like Iron Mountain, with flexible plans including annual document updates and discounted legal services for stored clients.

Questions
What happens if I don't have a will?
Without a will, your assets may be distributed according to intestacy rules rather than your wishes, potentially causing family disputes and increased inheritance tax liabilities.
How can trusts protect my estate?
Trusts can protect assets from excessive taxation across generations, manage inheritances for vulnerable beneficiaries, and prevent unintended distribution to new partners or third parties.
What's involved in creating a lasting power of attorney?
We help establish LPAs that legally authorise trusted individuals to manage your finances and healthcare decisions if you become incapacitated, avoiding court-appointed administrators.
How does your probate service work?
We guide executors through asset valuation, tax calculations, and court applications while ensuring legal compliance, typically charging fixed fees that provide cost certainty during difficult times.
Can I update my stored documents?
Yes, our DocumentCare plan includes annual basic amendments and a 15% discount on additional services to keep your estate plans current with changing circumstances.
What identification do you require?
We need one document from List A (passport, driving licence etc) and two documents from List B (utility bills, bank statements) for anti-money laundering compliance.
