Lodge Brothers take steps to help reduce the Inheritance Tax payable

Posted on November 15, 2020 by admin

Inevitably, life tends to have a way of getting away with us. We leave school as young adults, searching for incomes which will allow us the independence that we so covet. Earning money means we have the power to make the choices about our own lives that feel so important to us at the time. Whether our goals are to grow our careers, or to start a family, independence generally decreases as we become more financially viable. What begins as an endeavour to be the best person that we can be, results in the accrual of material things and people. The car you save for to empower freedom of choice in your life becomes an asset. The type of social interactions which you choose, leads to you meet likeminded individuals and perhaps eventually results in a joining of kindred spirits in matrimony or the like. Families grow, houses are built and the need for a more stable income grows. All of these things that you need to build to sustain your life, become your assets. You have a choice over them in life. So too, do you have a choice over them in death.

Life unwittingly takes hold of us and often, the administration of your life is left at the bottom of the list of things to do. Stats show that 38% of adults living in the UK passed away last year without a will. Your will is your last chance to make voice heard and to have your final choices carried out as you would have done if you were still able. Failing to plan for your estate your estate via your will, you leave a lot to chance. And if you have not lived your life leaving all things to chance, why let it be the case in your death. No one person knows your wishes and desires as well as you do so when you pass away without a will and your estate is then governed by the laws of intestacy which means that everything that you have worked your whole life to attain is now governed by a set of rules enforced by the courts. Only married or civil partners and some of your close relatives are able to inherit your estate under the laws of intestacy which means that the courts may assign your possessions to someone who you had never intended them to.

Lodge Brothers attorneys specialise exclusively in Probate, Wills and Power of Attorney. Probate Guildford is the process, which confirms who will handle a person’s estate after their death and it is important to have, as it is a legal requirement.

Live knowing that you have secured your families’ future

Posted on October 9, 2019 by admin

For most people, life involves the process of growing, learning and then using what we have learnt, to become our own independent people who have skills and experience which we use, to gather things as we go through life. It is a sign of success for a person to be able to gather many material assets during their life but mostly it is something that must happen, so that we can live our best life and provide stability and security to our families. Whether you do life in a traditional way or if you are someone who does things differently, there is always a need for the things that make your life easier and more secure, allowing you to support important people in your life as well as yourself.

Perhaps your first real possession was a watch, one that you saved for through hard work and dedication. Perhaps a car that you were eventually able to buy after years of working towards that goal. And there is a myriad of technologies that we can purchase during the years of our lives, as we grow up and eventually into old age.

When you look around you and see what you have managed to accrue in terms of material things, take a minute to also think about what would happen to all of those hard-earned large and small items that form part of your life, if you should happen to not come home at the end of the day to use them. The point is that this is a likely possibility for everyone eventually. Yet how many times do you think about what will happen to your possessions when you are gone? Honestly, this is something that most people think very little about. Life is for the living after all!

Probate is another that very few people will take a minute to think about on any given day. In fact, what is probate really? While it is actually quite a simple judicial process whereby your will is “proved” will in a court of law, the practice is something that not many will really think of as being important. Without this probate process of administering your estate, all of your material possessions may end up in the wrong hands or with people that you feel may not benefit as much from your life’s accumulated possessions, as someone else possibly would. This is why it is so important to stop, take the time to think about how Lodge Brothers probate Walton can assist and decide what you would like to happen when the time comes. This is where Lodge Brothers Legal Services is of vital assistance to you and your family. Probate is just one of the professional legal services that Lodge Brothers offers and all of these services will be of utmost importance to your family. Probate services at Lodge Brothers legal services are offered at a fixed fee which is agreed to in advance, depending on your requirements.

One size does not always fit all which is why you can get a free, no-obligation quote before you decide to proceed with engaging with Lodge Brothers for their probate West Byfleet services. However, when you make that decision, you can rest assured that everything to do with your estate will expertly and legally be processed just as you wanted it to be.
