Wills, Powers of Attorney and making your wishes clear
In our new video we explain why it is so important to make a Will and put in place a Power of Attorney (PoA) to ensure your wishes are respected.
They are the sort of documents none of us really wants to think about. But it's important you do think about the unthinkable, from what happens after you die to the unfortunate event that you or someone you love becomes incapacitated.
Alison McKay and Amy Docherty explain that properly draft, properly thought-out Wills and PoAs can reduce additional issues at a difficult and emotional time.

Marriage, living together and the impact of the decisions you make together
In this video, we dispel some of the myths and clarify misconceptions around marriage and living together
Cohabitees do not have the same rights as married couples and in both circumstances, people would be wise to protect themselves from unexpected consequences of decisions made together, such as buying a home.
Nina Taylor and Paige Burton highlight some of the key considerations for couples.
A quick chat with our team will ensure you know your rights and avoid unexpected surprises.
Prenups, postnups and why they are not just for the rich and famous
In this video, our lawyers explore the benefits of putting prenups and postnups in place:
Prenuptial agreements are often used to protect your existing assets when you marry or enter into a civil partnership.
Postnuptial agreements can be useful if your financial situation changes in some way – perhaps because of a windfall, business restructuring or career changes.
Alison McKee and Philippa Abernethy advise that prenups and postnups are not the preserve of the rich and famous, but useful agreements that many couples would be wise to consider.
You can speak to our team for advice on how these agreements can benefit you.
The modern family
In our first video our team talked about the 'modern family':
Modern family structures can be complex and there can be differences in how relationships are considered when it comes to legal matters.
Whether you are moving in with a partner, getting married again and want to protect your children from a previous relationship, planning for your family after you've gone, or are unsure of what rights your former partner may have to your estate, we can help.
Alison McKay and Nina Taylor explain how a simple conversation can keep things on the right track for your family.
Have a chat with our lawyers to discuss your circumstances and get advice tailored to your needs.
