Lasting Powers of Attorney
There are two aspects to making a Will:

Why Choose Me?
Estate Planning In Terms You Can Understand
Making a Will or donating Lasting Power of Attorney can sometimes feel overwhelming. Richard is dedicated to providing you help in language that you can understand. If you don't feel like you understand your options, just ask, and he'll find an explanation you can follow. Richard was a languages teacher for 15 years prior to retraining in Estate Planning - he believes there is no such thing as a silly question. He often says, he deals with Will making matters every day but that his clients think about it only rarely and so if ever there is something they would like explained, he is only too happy to do so.
Client Focused
From his long background in teaching Richard brings both a talent for explaining options clearly and a very pastoral approach to listening to his clients' instructions and suggesting the best estate planning solutions according to their particular needs. He's proud that his clients often tell him that they had not anticipated making a Will would be such a gentle, enjoyable or even humorous process.
