Specialist Wills

Mutual Wills - £250 the Pair

These Wills when 2 people make similar Wills where both make a declaration within the Will that they both agree that the content of the Wills shall not be changed or altered during their lifetime unless they both agree to do so.

Protective Property Trust Wills - £250 the Pair

With a ‘Lifetime Interest’ a pair of ‘Protective Property Trust Wills’ offer the most usual form of protection against losing assets to pay for any future ‘Care Home Fees’ Quite simply instead of a spouse leaving their homes to each other on the 1st death the first person to die’s share of the property goes into a ‘Property Trust’ the ultimate beneficiaries are normally the children. This protects the dead persons 50% of the home. The surviving spouse can remain living in the property or move in the future if required.
Please see the video about 'Long Term Care' towards the bottom of this Page.

A Right to Occupy Will - £175 each

This gives you the ability to give a spouse, partner, family member or friend the right to remain living in your property for a stated period of time or their lifetime if you die. Or if you wish you can include that the trust ends if they remarry or cohabitate as husband and wife with another, the trust can then be ended and the property then passes to your chosen beneficiaries.

A Discretionary Trust Will - £175 each

These Wills can be used for various scenarios, the Trust fund (what you leave in it) is controlled by the trustees you appoint, they hold the money and use it at their discretion to the benefit of the beneficiary or multiple beneficiaries. Situations where you may use this type of will include;

Setting up a Trust fund for a disabled person
Setting up a Trust fund to protect a spendthrift child
Setting up a Trust fund for a bankrupt

With this type of Will you would write a personal letter to your Trustees called an 'Expression of Wishes' this letter would be a 'guide' but only a guide to your trustees as to how you would wish them to act on your behalf after your death.

A Flexible Life Interest Trust Will (FLIT) - £175 each

This Will is used to give a spouse income from your estate for the rest of their life but ultimately your beneficiaries (normally your children) benefit from the capital, this is a very simple explanation but this type of Will is sometimes called the 'Rolls Royce' of Wills because of its flexibility and the advantages it has from an inheritance tax point of view and protection of your money from care fees and the future marriage of a spouse.
