Many people are put off making a Will because they feel they do not have significant assets or perhaps that it’s too expensive. However, not planning for the future can create difficulties for your family at an already distressing time and may result in your estate not being distributed in the way you would like. If it is time for you to plan, in order to ensure your family’s future is protected at the time of your death, then making a Will offers full, legal provision and peace of mind that your assets will be divided and shared out in the way that you intended. Call our friendly team to talk about our fixed fee will writing services.
A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legal document which allows someone to act on your behalf, providing them with authority to make decisions about your health and welfare, or your property and finances if you are unable to do so. This can provide you with peace of mind and also make life a lot easier for your family and loved ones.
Our Lifetime Planning Solicitors can help you make decisions that protect your family’s interests now and in the future. Rowlinsons Solicitors have decades of experience supporting individuals to express and carry out their wishes with effective planning during their lifetime.
The Court of Protection makes decisions for individuals who have lost the capacity to manage their finances or welfare. They may appoint deputies to make decisions for a person or allow a deputy to act on behalf of someone else on a per-case basis. We can support you to ensure you make the best of what can become an upsetting legal situation.
Trusts in wills can be very useful to ensure your assets are protected and managed the way you wish. They can be used to protect property or to provide financial support for children, with trustees overseeing the management of these.
Elderly clients often face particular legal challenges as they plan the division of their assets or may fall under the jurisdiction of the Court of Protection. This is why we offer tailored legal advice for elderly clients, covering all aspects of asset protection and planning.

It might seem overwhelming to begin the process of estate planning but breaking it down into manageable steps can make all the difference. Some of the key parts of the estate planning process include:
Begin by cataloguing everything you own that's of value, be it property, investments, or even family heirlooms. Knowing precisely what you have helps set the stage for an effective estate plan.
Look at your family's unique situation. Do you have young children who will require guardianship? Does one of your relatives have a disability? An estate plan can and should account for these considerations.
One of the perks of estate planning is the control it offers over who inherits your wealth, and how. Rather than leaving it to the legal system to decide, you can specify your chosen beneficiaries, from family and friends to charitable organisations. Whether you want your assets to be disbursed immediately upon your death or over time through trusts, your estate plan can facilitate this.
Estate planning can get complicated. For a tailored approach and peace of mind, consult with our expert solicitors at Rowlinsons. We provide a personalised service that caters to your unique needs and situation.
A brilliant estate plan is of no use if it's not accessible when needed. Consult with us on how to securely store these essential documents and who should have access to them.
It’s vital to keep your estate plan up-to-date to reflect life events like marriages, divorces, or the arrival of grandchildren. A stale estate plan can create more problems than it solves.
