Estate Planning
2020 Foresight can put in place a properly constructed Personal Will and organise effective Estate Planning for you and your family. We can ensure that planning for Inheritance Tax (IHT) and for care fees is undertaken properly.
The Need For A Well-Drafted Will
Over 27 million people have not yet made a will, don't be one of them! Don't be caught out by:
- No will at all resulting in a family 'time bomb' going off when you die
- A poorly-drafted will, leading to a court case to try to resolve a dispute
- A failure to update a will after major events such as divorce and re-marriage, step-children arriving on the scene; complications need to be anticipated!
- A failure to find a will, with it not securely stored or next-of-kin unaware of where to find it
Using our All Guard Wills service, we can help you to overcome all these potential problems. Plan NOW to avoid these headaches for your children and other next-of-kin.
Don't let the State decide on the dispersal of your estate. Without a will, Intestacy Laws can mean that your spouse may not receive everything automatically. Unmarried partners can end up with little or nothing. If a divorce isn't finalised, your estranged partner may end up with everything in preference to those who you would like your estate to pass to.
The increase in second marriages, often with children from previous marriages, means that life (and death) can get complicated. Only by having a legally valid, well-drafted will, can you ensure that your assets end up where you would like them to go.
IHT Planning and Planning for Care Fees
While allowances for Inheritance Tax (IHT) have increased significantly, it can still be easy to fall into the net. By using good Estate Planning, this can be avoided, potentially saving your family a significant amount in tax.
As we live longer, the chances of requiring long term care are increasing. Every year an estimated 70,000 homes are forcibly left to the Government to pay for long term care. Don't be one of those statistics, plan NOW.
Don't put off these issues any longer. Talk to us TODAY about how we can help you. Call us on 0845 467 6297 or fill out our Contact Form.
