Why should I appoint a guardian for my children in my Will and Testament? is a question I am often asked. Several reasons:

1. If you want to be sure that someone you trust will look after your children if you die, you need to decide who that should be by appointing a guardian in your will.

2. If you don’t appoint a guardian, the courts will decide who will look after your children in the event of your death. It is not guaranteed that this will be the person/people you would have chosen, so it is far better to make that decision yourself.

3. Your children could also be taken into care temporarily if you die and you have not appointed a guardian.

If you don't want this to be what happens to you, call me on 07366 768786. Weekend and evening appointments available.

A bit of a long one.... but an important subject for all parents, I get asked this Question, the answer will, I am sure, shock you.

Q: Why should I appoint a guardian for my children in my will?

A: If you want to be sure that someone you trust will look after your children if you die, you need to decide who that should be by appointing a guardian in your will.

If you don’t appoint a guardian, the courts will decide who will look after your children in the event of your death. It is not guaranteed that this will be the person/people you would have chosen, so it is far better to make that decision yourself.

Your children could also be taken into care temporarily if you die and you have not appointed a guardian.

In a recent post I talked about why you should appoint guardians for your children.

Now, let me ask you: Do you have a blended family? Estate planning is crucial for blended families to ensure that all family members are taken care of and that assets are distributed according to your wishes. It also insures that the children are taken care of when it comes to their inheritance.

Yes it is essential that you communicate openly with your family to ensure transparency and prevent misunderstandings, but you will need to involve a professional who is able to provide clarity and address any concerns, they will also guide you on what is the right path for you to take. All situations are different and it is important that you engage with an estate planning professional to help you navigate things such as wills, trusts insurance and any life changes.

If you would like to start exploring this for your family please get in touch I would be delighted to help.

The advantages of having a Health and Welfare Power of Attorney are:

You can appoint one or more persons to make important decisions regarding your medical care, moving in to a care home or indeed choosing which care home you move in to, your daily life and the ability to refuse life sustaining treatment.

This Power of Attorney can only be used once you have lost the capacity to make decisions for yourself.

I offer free appointments and can do weekends and evenings. It costs nothing to talk but could cost you a lot if you don't!
