Always trying to be of further assistance to our clients, Elias Will Writers will shortly be offering the following additional services. Advance Directive Advance Directives (Living Wills) give instructions, in advance, to any physicians caring for you during a terminal or incurable illness. The directive is made when you are in good health, mentally and physically. In the circumstances listed, the directions are to avoid life prolonging technology and to limit treatment to the best possible pain relief (even if this effectively shortens your life). Advance Directives have no formal recognition at present but increasingly the medical practitioners are taking note of these instructions especially if there is no conflict of interests with their other professional obligations. Enduring Power Of Attorney Enduring Power Of Attorney caters for the possibility of you becoming mentally incapable of dealing with your own financial affairs. If you subsequently become incapable, the appointed attorneys must apply to the Court Of Protection to deal with financial matters on your behalf. The powers available to attorneys are significant and are granted only after further checks have been made with close relatives. Joint Tenancy Change Joint Tenancy Change gives notice of the intention to sever a joint tenancy of a property and in the future to own the property as tenants in common for the specific purpose of being able to dispose of individual shares separately by a Will. To effect the changed tenancy status, the document is sent to the local Land Registry. When a tenancy is changed in this way, the Wills often grant the survivor a lifetime interest in the separate share of the property. Pre-Paid Funeral Plans The idea of planning and paying for your funeral in advance may, at first, seem rather morbid. But by doing so you can be sure that your wishes are carried out and that your family will not be under additional financial pressure at a difficult time. Please let us know if any of the above services would be of interest to you, so that we can send you the appropriate details when that service becomes available.
