Your Partner in Private Client Law
Wills and Inheritance Tax Planning
A professionally drafted Will ensures your wishes are followed, protects your loved ones and prevents uncertainty. We explain every step in plain English and help you make confident decisions about your Estate, guardianship, gifts and future planning. As a Solicitor specialising in Wills, we will ensure your Will is legally robust and tailored to your circumstances and wishes.
Capacity and Planning for Later Life
A Lasting Power of Attorney allows you to choose who will help manage your finances, health and welfare if you ever need support. We prepare and register both types of Lasting Power of Attorney, ensuring everything is completed correctly and explained clearly. As a Solicitor with significant experience in drafting and registering Lasting Powers of Attorney, we regularly assist clients, carers and families navigating capacity concerns.
Trusts and Tax Planning
MW Legal helps Clients to protect their assets and pass them on smoothly to their loved ones. We advise on creating and managing Trusts, providing clear Inheritance Tax and Capital Gains Tax guidance, and ensuring all documents and registrations stay compliant. Our focus is on practical, reassuring support that safeguards wealth, supports vulnerable beneficiaries, and keeps families’ long‑term plans on track.
Court of Protection
If someone has lost capacity and does not have a Lasting Power of Attorney in place, we can assist with Deputyship applications and ongoing Court of Protection support. This includes guidance for families, carers and professionals managing complex or sensitive situations.
Probate and Estate Administration
Losing a loved one is difficult enough without legal paperwork. We support Executors and Personal Representatives obtaining the Grant of Probate or Grant of Representation, preparing the Inheritance Tax forms, dealing with banks and institutions, and administering the Estate from start to finish. Whether you need a Grant‑only service or full Estate administration, you will receive clear guidance and a transparent fee structure.
Contentious Probate
Contentious Probate disputes can arise when there are concerns about a Will, the way an Estate is being handled, or whether someone has been properly provided for. As a specialist Contentious Probate Solicitor, I provide clear, calm advice on challenges to Wills, Executor disputes, Inheritance Act claims and disagreements between beneficiaries. I focus on practical solutions, early resolution where possible, and firm representation when needed, helping you navigate a difficult situation with clarity and confidence.
