Can a Will protect my home from care home fees?

Yes. By using a Property Protection Trust Will, homeowners in England and Wales can protect their share of the family home. This ensures that if one partner requires care, the other half of the property is ringfenced for their children.

What is a Lasting Power of Attorney?

A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows you to appoint trusted individuals to manage your health and financial affairs if you lose mental capacity. Xwills provides professional drafting to ensure OPG compliance.

Expert Protection for Your Estate

Can a Will protect my home from care fees?

A Property Protection Trust Will may help preserve the deceased owner’s share of the home for their beneficiaries. However, care-fee assessments depend on the ownership, Trust terms and individual circumstances, so protection cannot be guaranteed.

What is “Sideways Disinheritance”?

Sideways disinheritance can occur when assets inherited by a surviving partner later pass to a new spouse or different beneficiaries. A Life Interest Trust can provide for the survivor while preserving specified assets for the beneficiaries you ultimately choose.

Why do I need an LPA as a homeowner?

Without a registered Lasting Power of Attorney , relatives do not automatically have authority to manage your finances or property if you lose mental capacity. Professional preparation can also help reduce avoidable application errors and delays.
