Wills, Probate, Powers of Attorney & Trusts for families in Cornwall
Keeping and updating a Will is an important part of planning for the future.
Our lives are constantly changing and so are the relationships we have with the people around us, so overtime, your Will might not accurately reflect your wishes or the assets you have.
Trust DB Law to simplify your will adjustment process and maintain your wishes for your family’s future.
Here As Much As You Need Us
From a single basic Will through Lasting Powers of Attorney and up to the administration of complex Estates, DB Law can give you the support and expertise you require.
Our Wills and Probate specialists can offer a variety of services and charging structures to cater for your precise needs.
Wills
A Will can ensure that those you are close to are the people who benefit from your estate when you are gone and our professionals can help you maximize the assets you leave to those you love.
Planning a Will properly and reviewing it regularly can help preserve as much of what is yours for your beneficiaries as possible.
Powers Of Attorney
None of us can be sure how our circumstances and health might be affected in the future. Powers of Attorney (such as General Powers of Attorney or Lasting Powers of Attorney) can help if some of your circumstances change and particularly if your mental of physical health deteriorate.
Probate
When you or your loved ones pass away, the Estate needs to be administered.
The Executors or Personal Representatives will collect in all of the assets and ensure they pass to the people who are entitled to them.
We can assist either by simply obtaining the necessary Grant or by dealing with the whole administration of the Estate depending on how much help you need.
Trusts
Either as part of the administration of an Estate, protection of vulnerable individuals or as part of Estate Planning, Trusts can assist.
We can advise and recommend as to the best options for your circumstances.
Fixed Fees
We can offer fixed fees for most Wills, Powers of Attorney and for our Probate only service.
