wills and lpas in harworth.

Harworth and Bircotes sit just off the A1, about twenty minutes from me. It’s a place that has changed a lot over the years, with new housing going up alongside the older streets. I’m happy to visit anywhere in the town or the villages nearby.

coming to you in harworth

I come to your house. The visit is included in the price, and there’s no extra for evenings. We’ll talk it through at your own table, at your own pace.

what if the house is the main thing you’ll leave?

For a lot of families I meet, the house is the biggest thing they own. Some have lived in it for decades and paid it off years ago. It’s what you’ve worked for, and it’s what you want your children to have.

That’s exactly the situation where sideways disinheritance does the most damage. If you and your husband or wife leave everything to each other, the survivor owns the whole house. If they later remarry, or move in with someone and change their will, the house can end up going to that new partner and their family. Your children can be left out completely, even though nobody set out to do it.

There’s a straightforward fix. A protective trust in your wills can make sure the first half of the house is held for your children, while the survivor can still live there for the rest of their life. It’s not about mistrust. It’s about making the plan stick. You can read how I prevent sideways disinheritance, or ask me when I visit.

Mirror wills start at £249 for a couple. I’ll tell you clearly if a trust would add anything, and what it would cost, before you decide.

If you’re in Harworth or Bircotes, book a home visit or call me.
