The only way to ensure that your dependants and loved ones are provided for in the event of your death is to write a legally enforceable Will. When a person has lost the ability and capacity to make decisions regarding their own finances or welfare it may be that a Court of Protection Order is required.

Your wishes and concerns are carefully listened to by our friendly, skilled, local solicitors who work with you to prepare a document that takes full account of your financial status and that of your dependants and to include your personal wishes.

When a person has lost the ability and capacity to make decisions regarding their own finances or welfare, and a Lasting or Enduring Power of Attorney has not been created beforehand, then it may be that a Court of Protection Order is required. A Deputyship Order must be formally granted by the Court of Protection to give you (The Deputy) authority and permission to safeguard and make decisions for the person who has lost capacity.
There are two main types of power of attorney that cover different scenarios when you may need others to make decisions and sign on your behalf. A power of attorney can only be made whilst you retain full capacity to make your own decisions. General or Specific Power of Attorney is used when you are not physically present to sign or make decisions.

We have recently completed a transaction as a purchaser with Coates Solicitors. Lindsay and the team went over and above on our behalf to get the transaction over the line under pressure. Would not hesitate to recommend them to other vendors / purchasers.

Ultimately, Coates gave us good advice and we chose to withdraw from our house purchase. But the communication wasn't proactive, and they struggled to convey information in a way that a layman (like me) could understand. We felt like we were chasing for news a lot of the time and didn't feel like the process would move along unless we called up and chased.

I have used Coates solicitors on several occasions in the past for both residential and buy to let properties and they have been outstanding.
My most recent purchase was and auction property that had several Major issues, Coates found the contracts were in correct advised me against purchase, I managed with the help of a Litigation solicitor to get all my money Back, This would not have been possible were it not for Lynsey and her property knowledge.
Thanks

We were first time buyers and chose Coates solicitors for our conveyancing after recommendations from friends. We were really pleased with the service. The team kept us informed through emails and were responsive over the phone to any questions we had. Would definitely use them again.
