From care fees to inheritance tax, unfortunately, there are a wide range of factors that can chip away at the inheritance you hope to leave your loved ones. However, through proper estate planning and by putting the right legal protection in place, you can manage these risks and protect what’s important for those who matter most to you.
This is why we’re pleased to be able to share with you a video of our recent event on protecting against inheritance tax, care fees, and the great unknown.
In this session, Alex Crate, Head of Estate planning at Co-op Legal Services, explains these risks and how they relate to you. Alex also explains what steps you can take (for instance, putting the right will and lasting power of attorney in place) to protect and preserve your finances, and ultimately provide for your loved ones in the way that you want.
Alex answers the questions:
What are the common issues families face that can erode inheritance?
How can care fees, inheritance tax, and changing family relationships impact the inheritance I hope to leave behind?
What steps can I take to protect the inheritance I hope to leave my loved ones?
