Elderly Client Services
Over the years, Attwaters has helped hundreds of elderly clients and their families sort out the often complex questions of property, assets, financial affairs and long term care.
A major concern for many elderly people is how will they be cared for in their twilight years without becoming a burden to the family. When one’s health starts to fail and it becomes increasingly difficult to care for one’s self, then seeking residence in a care home may be the only option.
Whether you decide on a nursing home or some other form of long term residential care, there is always the issue of cost and the need to protect the family home from being used to pay care fees. Simply transferring ownership to your children is no guarantee that your house is protected and can carry many other risks to you personally as well. We provide advice and practical help on dealing with this sort of situation.
We can advise on all the legal issues surrounding elderly people, including:
Admission to care
Funding of elderly care
Gifts of property
Estate planning
Powers of attorney
Wills
