Will writing
As part of complete investment portfolio, it is essential to have a correctly worded will in place. At Curo Wealth we have an in-house Will Writer to provide advice on Wills and Estate Planning.
At its most basic level a Will allows you to do three things:
- Appoint the people you trust to administer your estate on death
- Appoint people as guardians for your minor children
- To control who received your estate and when they receive it
Without a will in place, you will have no control over these matters, the state will decide these things for you.
Inheritance Tax is the only tax we can legally avoid arranging a Will is the first step to ensuring your estate passes to your loved ones in the most tax efficient manner possible.
Lasting Power of Attorney
Lasting Power of Attorney deal with loss of Mental Capacity as defined by the Mental Capacity Act 2005.
There are two types of Lasting Power of Attorney, one deals with your Property and Financial Affairs and the other deals with your Health and Welfare decisions.
Without these documents in place, any decisions regarding your personal finances or personal welfare would be made by your Local Authority.
The introduction of GDPR (Data Protection Rules) in May 2018, made having a Lasting Power of Attorney in place pretty much essential.
