Estate Planning Lawyer

W​hat is estate planning and what is the role of an estate planning lawyer?

Estate planning is the process of preparing for the management and distribution of your assets after your death.

It involves making legal arrangements to ensure that your wishes are followed and that your estate is handled efficiently and in accordance with the law. This can include drafting a will, setting up trusts, minimising Inheritance Tax, and appointing power of attorney.

An estate planning lawyer (or estate planning solicitor) is a legal expert who helps individuals navigate these processes, offering advice and ensuring that all legal requirements are met.

They provide invaluable support in organising your estate, protecting your assets, and ensuring that your family and loved ones are taken care of according to your wishes after you’re gone.

By working with an estate planning lawyer, you ensure that your estate is structured in a way that reduces the burden on your loved ones, and avoids complications in the future.

What does an estate planning solicitor do?

An estate planning solicitor provides comprehensive legal advice tailored to your specific needs in managing and protecting your assets, both during your lifetime and after.

Their role goes beyond just drafting a will. They ensure that all your estate planning documents and decisions align with your wishes and comply with the law.

​Salisbury (locally /ˈsɔːzb(ə)ri/ SAWZ-b(ə-)ree)[a] is a cathedral city in Wiltshire, England with a population of 41,820,[1] at the confluence of the rivers Avon, Nadder and Bourne. The city is approximately 20 miles (30 kilometres) from Southampton and 30 miles (50 kilometres) from Bath.

Salisbury is in the southeast of Wiltshire, near the edge of Salisbury Plain. An ancient cathedral was north of the present city at Old Sarum. A new cathedral was built near the meeting of the rivers and a settlement grew up around it, which received a city charter in 1227 as New Sarum. This continued to be its official name until 2009, when Salisbury City Council was established. Salisbury railway station is an interchange between the West of England Main Line and the Wessex Main Line.

Stonehenge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is 8 miles (13 kilometres) northwest of Salisbury.
