We are delighted to announce the launch of our 25th issue of Lindsays Life. We hope the year has started well for you.
Looking ahead to 2024, we all know there are uncertainties ahead. Will inflation and interest rates come down? Who will win the UK and US elections? How will the outcomes affect our families or businesses? What arrangements should we put in place to cater for this – from doing (or updating) some inheritance planning to updating the HR policies in a family business?
Beyond the public sphere of politics and regulation, many of us will be navigating personal change too – a relationship breakdown, a second marriage, a house move, or some new plans for the family farm or business.
This issue of Lindsays Life offers you ideas and useful information on all of these matters, and more besides, including tips for charity trustees, guidance on Powers of Attorney, and information on a little-known area of personal injury law, called ‘loss of society’. We also introduce you our new team members and tell you about recent promotions.
We hope the articles are useful to you, your family and your business, as you navigate the uncertainties of 2024. With the right planning and protections in place, you’ll be better equipped to deal with whatever happens in 2024 and beyond -both the ‘known unknowns’ and the ‘unknown unknowns’. All of us at Lindsays are here to help you do that.
