KTP Solicitors is a respected law firm with offices conveniently located throughout South Wales.
We have a dedicated department providing specific services for our older clients. Some of these services include:
Community Care and Hospital Discharge
We work with care professionals to help you with the transition from hospital back home or into a care home and we will be there to provide legal advice or put things in place to help to protect you.
Will Writing and Lifetime Gifts
A will is vital if you want to make sure your estate passes to the right people when you die. We will advise you and help you put a will in place that will see your wishes carried out and will eliminate disputes. We can also advise you on lifetime gifts and the associated tax implications.
Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)
Appointing someone to make decisions on your behalf should you become unable to do so is a wise move which will safeguard your property and welfare in the future. There is an LPA to deal with property and financial assets and another covering healthcare and life sustaining medical treatment. An LPA must be made whilst full mental capacity is held.
Court of Protection (CPO)
The Court of Protection exists to protect the financial affairs of mentally incapacitated individuals who did not appoint an attorney when they held full mental capacity. We can help with CPO applications and on-going affairs management.
Long Term Care Planning
Planning ahead to a time when long term care may become necessary is vital if you want to ensure your home and financial assets remain intact. We can help with that planning in a variety of ways.
Your Needs: Our Priority
Because taking care of your needs is our priority, we have brought together a team of specialists who, as members of Solicitors for the Elderly, will work closely with you to help you safeguard your assets, protect you from wrong-doing and plan for the future so that you can get on and enjoy your life with the peace of mind you deserve.
We have close relationships with professionals outside of KTP Solicitors such as care officers and social workers and our service complements theirs perfectly. Our specialists also have strong links with bodies such as Age Concern and Crossroads.
For your convenience we offer home and hospital visits to all clients who are unable to attend our offices. In summary, everything we do is aimed at protecting your best interests.
