Based in the seaside town of Deal we have served the East Kent community for over 200 years providing our clients with a friendly and efficient service and practical advice delivered by experienced professionals.

Everyone should consider making a will for the simple reason that a will makes clear what should happen to your property after you die and enables you to arrange your affairs as you wish. Without a will the law sets out how your property and assets are distributed and that may not be what you wanted.

It is a mistake to assume that everything will automatically pass to your partner, wife/husband or children on your death. In many cases, if you die without a will this will simply NOT happen. It is therefore important that everyone who cares about what happens to their assets after they die makes a will. It is particularly important for those whose affairs are more complicated, such as unmarried couples and people who have had children from previous relationships.

In addition to arranging how your property is to be disposed of, your will appoints executors to administer your estate and can appoint guardians if you have young children.

You may want to create a trust to provide for young children or someone with a disability or simply to safeguard your property in some way after you die.

One of our solicitors or consultants will meet with you to discuss your requirements and then prepare a competitively priced will to give effect to your wishes. We can also advise you on potential liability to Inheritance Tax and possible ways to reduce the liability.
