Use the post-summer lull to protect your finances - before it's too late

ILAWS SCOTLAND ARE THE EXPERTS WHEN IT COMES TO SAFEGUARDING YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE

- 

Very soon, summer will feel like a distant memory - after all, time flies when you're having fun. And if your summer months have been filled with holidays, barbecues, and babysitting nieces, nephews or grandkids, then you may well find your schedule becoming a lot more manageable as we head into the autumn.

That's why now is the perfect time to make sure you're taking care of yourself and your family, and safeguarding the future for everyone you love.

This means having a good look at your legal and financial status. Let's be honest, nobody wants to think about such things when the weather's good and the schools are off, but time is most certainly of the essence, and believe it or not Christmas will be upon us sooner than you realise - and then you're into next year.

Rated 4.8 on Trustpilot*, thousands of people in Scotland trust ILAWS to secure their family finances. They can help you protect your home with a Protected Property Trust (PPT); organise Power of Attorney (POA) so that major financial decisions can be made by your loved ones if you are unable to do so; or help you draw up a Will.

HOME PROTECTION

As our elderly population increases and conditions like dementia and Parkinson's become more common, the demand for end-of-life care is increasing too. However, it is enormously expensive; the cost of round-the-clock care currently averages around £70,000 per year - and if your capital assets are worth £29,750 or more, you are required to meet your own care costs in full.
