Why might you include a Trust in your Will?

23rd March 2021 //  by Peter Brash

Trusts have a broad range of applications to modern families. Before we look at what a trust actually is, in broad terms, trusts may have practical relevance for you where you have a need: to protect vulnerable persons; to protect assets; to plan how the succession to your estate following your death can best be …

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. Beyond that, with the time delay that comes with platforms such as Zoom, you can’t easily have groups of musicians who are remote from each …

Why you don’t want to miss out on making a Power of Attorney

Don't miss out on making a power of attorney

14th April 2020 //  by Peter Brash

Under conditions of social distancing, it’s more difficult to make a Will or Power of Attorney. But it is not impossible. The Law Society of Scotland has issued guidelines as to how it is still possible for solicitors to take instructions to prepare Wills and Powers of Attorney for clients and for clients to get …
