Making a Will

Most people underestimate the importance of a carefully drafted Will - and usually overestimate the cost of preparing one. We can help ensure that you have the maximum say in how your property and belongings are disposed of after your death, allow you to make the best provisions for your dependents and avoid or reduce the burdens of unnecessary taxation. We can also help ensure that your Will is regularly updated, to take account of any changes in circumstances which could affect your bequests.

Lasting Power of Attorney

You may wish to consider signing a form of "Lasting Power of Attorney". This is a support document by which you can appoint members of your family, or other persons, to act on your behalf in respect of your financial affairs, should you not be able to manage them yourself because of accident, illness or other circumstances. By signing this form you are not handing over your assets, or giving up any rights to make decisions, and so long as you have capacity, the form can be cancelled and new attorneys appointed at any time. We will be pleased to provide you with further information about LPA's.

Injury & Accidents

We have extensive experience of the complex aspects of personal injury, whether caused by an accident or mishap at work, on the road or elsewhere. We can advise you on the best ways to proceed, help to determine responsibility and act on your behalf in negotiating a speedy settlement of your claim.

In many instances we can undertake your work on a 'no win, no fee' basis meaning that if you receive every penny awarded to you without any cost to yourself - and if you're unfortunate enough to lose, you will incur no costs.

Going to Court

Going to court to resolve any dispute can be both costly and time consuming - and we will always attempt to resolve a matter without resorting to litigation. However, should it be needed, our specialist litigation departments can advise on and conduct all types of actions in County and High Courts - and can represent you in Magistrates Courts in connection with family matters and criminal or motoring offences. The firm holds a Legal Services Commission franchise for family work.
