WILLS/INHERITANCE – COHABITEES

New laws are currently being proposed to extend inheritance rules for unmarried partners who have lived together for a certain amount of time.  If you have any issues on inheritance or if you are a disappointed beneficiary or you are worried about your position as a cohabitee, please do not hesitate to contact Del Cudd 01792 450010.

NO POWER OF ATTORNEY – DEPUTYSHIP

In the absence of a lasting power of attorney more and more deputyships will have to be applied for.  Families ought to give serious consideration to whether or not they should appoint a professional deputy.  If you have concerns about the capacity of any family members or need further advice on powers of attorney or deputyship, please contact Jonathan Cudd on 01792 450010.
