9th May 2020 //  by Peter Brash

Can you tell me what I would have to do to set up power of attorney for my mother-in-law who is 79 and we have noticed that her memory is going? This is a common type of enquiry for solicitors. A person can only grant a Power of Attorney if they still have legal capacity. …

3 Reasons not to put off consulting a Solicitor even during lockdown

25th April 2020 //  by Peter Brash

We’re all missing social contact at the moment. One group missing their get-togethers is musicians. Some duos have managed to perform simultaneously by sitting at opposite ends of long couches.

With Power of Attorney the future is in your hands

Double rainbow near Inchberry, Moray, August 2019

16th August 2019 //  by Peter Brash

On one afternoon recently, we had 2 calls from people who wanted to discuss “the accident that I had recently”. Both put the phone down when our receptionist asked them if they realised that they were calling a firm of solicitors. Nobody likes getting a cold call. The cold callers hoped to take something off …

When you need a Power of Attorney or Will urgently

Blackboard chalk graph with Urgency and Importance axes

14th March 2018 //  by Peter Brash
