A concern for business owners is how to run their businesses efficiently, with minimal disruptions or disagreements.
When a parent’s estate is not divided equally, or when sibling disputes arise over inheritance rights, emotions can run high, and challenging a Will can become a complex and sensitive issue. Tensions between family members can escalate, leading to legal challenges that may strain relationships and result in prolonged court proceedings.
When discussing lasting powers of attorney (LPAs) with clients, usually their immediate concern is appointing an attorney to deal with their personal affairs. But this overlooks another key question: who would run your business if you were ill, or had an accident and lost capacity?
Planning for the future can feel daunting, but preparing a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a straightforward step to help you protect your interests and provide clarity for loved ones. In this comprehensive lasting power of attorney guide, Walker Foster’s expert solicitors explain what a power of attorney is, how to set one up and how they can provide peace of mind for you and your family.
