Yes, having both a Will and an LPA is important for comprehensive protection. A Will ensures your wishes are carried out after your death, while an LPA ensures that someone can act on your behalf during your lifetime if you become unable to make decisions. Together, they help protect your estate and well-being at all stages of life.

Creating a Will or Lasting Power of Attorney involves working with a legal professional who will help you outline your wishes and ensure that all necessary legal steps are followed. We can guide you through the process, ensuring that both documents are legally valid and tailored to your individual needs.

Yes, both your Will and Lasting Power of Attorney can be updated or amended as your circumstances change. This may include changes in your family, finances, or wishes. We can assist you in making any necessary updates, ensuring that your documents always reflect your current intentions.

If you don’t have a Will, your estate will be distributed according to the laws of intestacy, which may not reflect your wishes. Without a Lasting Power of Attorney, if you become incapacitated, decisions about your finances or healthcare may be made by someone you wouldn’t have chosen or even by a court-appointed individual. We strongly recommend putting these legal protections in place to ensure your wishes are followed.
