Will Writing and Storage
Making a Will can be an emotional and daunting task but is an important step in safeguarding the future of your loved ones. A well-crafted Will can provide protection and is one of the most important steps you can take to ensure that your wishes are carried out after you are gone. Without a Will, you lose control over how your assets are handled and distributed.

A Trust can add an extra layer of protection to your Will. A Trust works somewhat like a box, instead of the assets passing directly to your beneficiaries the assets go into the box (the Trust) for safekeeping, adding protection against various factors.
We offer two types of Trust:
Property Protection Trust
A Property Protection Trust, also known as a Life Interest Trust, is a tool to ‘ringfence’ your property to protect it for your beneficiaries.
Common uses for this Trust include protection against hostile creditors or protection against remarriage.
The Trust allows for a person to remain living in the property without owning it. At the end of the Trust, the property passes to your beneficiaries.
Discretionary Trust
A Discretionary Trust allows you to leave an inheritance for your beneficiaries at the discretion of your Trustees. The Trust can benefit a number of people (you must have at least two beneficiaries) and allows the Trustees to distribute the assets as they see fit. You can write a Letter of Wishes to your Trustees to give them guidance.
Common uses for this Trust include protection against a beneficiaries change in circumstances (such as marriage/divorce or financial hardship) or to protect a vulnerable person who may not be able to manage their own inheritance.
Will Storage
Your Will is a very important document. It should be kept safe as if it is lost or damaged in any way, it could be invalid.
