Wollaston Associates

Based in Stockport, Greater Manchester, Wollaston Associates is a company specialising in Legal Estate Planning, Succession Protection and mitigation for individuals, families and SMEs. Sometimes involving all three! We are particular experts in the legal protection of assets for vulnerable individuals with specific care needs and their family members. We do a deep fact-find with all clients to ascertain how we can eliminate the risks to the client’s wealth, assets and worries about the potential risks to their peace of mind, whilst protecting their family, results from ill-health and risks to their business. The key to these processes is a well-crafted Will. It is apparent from the amount of the population who do not have a valid Will in place (over 60%), that they do not realise that if no valid Will is in place, then they are considered “intestate” and a formula is used to distribute their assets, which may not reflect what their wishes would be. Also, they assume that a Will is a document that solely is used to distribute assets on death, whereas it is probably the most important document that you can put in place to protect you throughout your lifetime. The additional Clauses, Deeds and Trusts that you can incorporate into a Will ensure that your wishes are protected.
