What we do

Expert Estate Planning Services

From a simple will to complex trust arrangements, WE LAW Estate provides clear, professional guidance at every stage of your estate planning journey.

Will Writing

A professionally drafted will is the foundation of any estate plan.

Without a valid will, your estate passes under the rules of intestacy — which may not reflect your wishes or protect the people you love.

WE LAW Estate prepares single wills, mirror wills for couples, and reviews and updates existing wills to ensure they remain current and legally sound.

  • Single and mirror wills
  • Will reviews and updates
  • Guidance on executors and guardians
  • Specific gifts and residuary estate

Lasting Powers of Attorney

Protect your ability to make decisions — or have them made for you — if you lose capacity.

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows you to appoint trusted people to act on your behalf if you become unable to manage your own affairs.

WE LAW Estate prepares both types of LPA and assists with registration at the Office of the Public Guardian.

  • Property & Financial Affairs LPA
  • Health & Welfare LPA
  • Preparation and registration assistance
  • Guidance on choosing attorneys

Trust & Asset Protection Planning

Safeguard your home and assets for the people who matter most.

Trusts can be a powerful tool for protecting your estate from care fees, sideways disinheritance, and other risks that a simple will cannot address.

WE LAW Estate advises on will trusts, property protection trusts, and other appropriate trust-based arrangements tailored to your circumstances.

  • Will trusts
  • Property protection trusts
  • Discretionary and life interest trusts
  • Advice on trust structures and trustees

Estate Planning

A holistic review of your circumstances and the arrangements needed to protect your family.

Estate planning goes beyond writing a will. It means reviewing your full circumstances — property, assets, family situation and wishes — and putting the right arrangements in place.

WE LAW Estate takes the time to understand your situation and recommend a coordinated plan that works for you and your family.

  • Full circumstances review
  • Coordinated wills, LPAs and trusts
  • Family and property protection
  • Ongoing review and updates

Inheritance & Legacy Planning

Plan how your assets pass to the people and causes you care about.

Careful legacy planning ensures your wealth reaches the right beneficiaries — including future generations — in the most effective way.

WE LAW Estate helps you think through how your estate will be distributed and structure your arrangements accordingly.

  • Beneficiary planning
  • Multi-generational legacy structures
  • Charitable giving within your estate
  • Coordinated with your will and trusts

Probate Support

Practical guidance for executors and families following a bereavement.

Dealing with an estate after a death can be complex and emotionally demanding. WE LAW Estate provides practical support to executors and families navigating the process.

Support is provided within the services WE LAW Estate is able to offer, with clear guidance on next steps at every stage.

  • Executor guidance and support
  • Estate administration assistance
  • Liaising with relevant parties
  • Clear, compassionate advice

Professional Attorney Services

Acting personally as your appointed attorney when you need it most.

Where clients have no suitable family member or friend to act as attorney, WE LAW Estate can act personally when appointed under a Property & Financial Affairs and/or Health & Welfare LPA.

Ongoing support can be agreed to ensure your affairs are managed with care, professionalism and your best interests at heart.

  • Acting under Property & Financial Affairs LPA
  • Acting under Health & Welfare LPA
  • Ongoing support arrangements
  • Independent, professional representation
