It is very common and entirely understandable for people to put off thinking about making a Will or planning for what would happen if they became incapacitated. After all, these are things that nobody particularly likes to think about.
However, if you don’t put the right measures in place before it’s too late, you run the risk of your wishes not being carried out and your loved ones being left in a difficult position.
We would advise anyone to make a Will, but depending on your circumstances, there are also various other options to consider. This includes creating a Living Will setting out your preferences for end of life treatment and issues such as organ donation, as well as setting up a Lasting Power of Attorney giving a loved one the power to make decisions for you if you ever lose the capacity to do so yourself.
Our team works with clients across the Cotswolds, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire, as well as in London and throughout the UK. We can help make sure you have all the right measures in place so that your wishes will be respected and your needs taken care of no matter what the future brings.
