As
we all get on in life,
we have to consider
whether we, or others
for whom we care,
need additional help
or support for the
management of our
affairs. If we or
they are unable to
cope, physically or
mentally, who can
assist and what legal
arrangements have
to be in place? With
recent legislation,
this is an increasingly
important area.
At
Patten & Prentice
we have provided advice
and expertise for
many years on these
and other issues:-
granting a Power
of Attorney
to someone you
trust to look
after your finances
or your welfare
when you need
assistance
financial guardianship
or intervention
orders and the
procedures necessary
to put these
in place
assisting with
the practical
and financial
arrangements
if required
the preparation
of wills and
related tax
planning opportunities
