New Forest Estate Administration Solicitors

At Scott Bailey LLP, we are a law firm made up of skilled solicitors, including those who were ranked in Chambers UK 2010 and 2011. We provide our clients with skilled representation and personalized attention in a variety of legal matters involving wills, probate, trusts and other estate-related issues.

Wills

What will happen to your assets and loved ones in the event of your death? If you do not have a will, or your will is not up to date, there is a risk that your property will be divided in a way that is not as you intended. There are a variety of options for preserving your assets and achieving tax efficiency. Our solicitors can help you explore your options.

Trusts

Trusts can be a useful tool with which to protect assets, and to some extent carry out tax planning. They can be set up during your lifetime, and/or under the terms of your will. There are a number of types of trusts, and our solicitors can provide you with guidance as you consider what type is best for your situation.

Lasting Powers of Attorney

A lasting power of attorney (LPA) gives authority to another person of your choice to make decisions on your behalf if you are ever unable to make those decisions for yourself. There are two types of LPAs: one for property and financial affairs and one for health and welfare. You must be of sound mind and body to create an LPA, so it is crucial to explore your options as soon as possible with a solicitor.

Executor Representation

The role of executor presents many challenges and it is important to ensure you are following the law and properly carrying out your duties. Our estate administration solicitors in New Forest offer a number of services to executors, including:

Dealing with entire estates
