Services
Helping clients with Wills and Will Writing in Whitley Bay, Monkseaton, North Shields, Wallsend, Newcastle, North Tyneside and Northumberland. Your Will is the most important document you will ever sign. It disposes of all of your assets (including your home) after your death. Despite this, it is estimated that up to 70% of the population do not have a current Will.
We are all living longer which increases the risk that at some stage we may become unable to make our own financial or welfare decisions. Quite rightly no one, not even your husband or wife, has access to your cash, investments or property without your permission.
This can lead to untold expense and worry for your family who would need to make an application to the Court of Protection if you became unable to manage your finances or make welfare decisions through illness or accident.Unless you've legally given permission to someone you trust to manage your affairs (your attorney), your assets may be frozen unless someone applies to the Court of Protection.

You do not need a solicitor or adviser to make a Lasting Power of Attorney. All of the forms are available online from the Office of the Public Guardian (www.publicguardian.gov.uk). However, there are many pages of notes and guidance which should be read carefully before completing the form to ensure that each section of the form is understood.
Once a property and financial affairs Lasting Power of Attorney has been registered, your attorney(s) can start to make decisions for you - both when you have mental capacity and when you lack mental capacity. However, you still have authority to act for yourself and your Lasting Power of Attorney does not have to be used straight away.
An attorney for personal welfare may make any decision that you could make about your welfare, for example, where you live and with whom, access to your personal information like medical records, deciding what you wear, what you eat and how you spend your day. They will also be able to give and refuse consent to medical treatment according to you best interests.

I live abroad and had need of a solicitor with regard to probate . Juliette Adia came highly recommended by a business man that I know. Within hours she had contacted me with information I requested and kept me advised with every step. I would not hesitate to recommend her. It was good to know that although I was thousands of miles away I could trust someone to look after my interests
