What is Will Aid?
November is Will Aid month and we are delighted to be taking part once again. Last year our team, with tremendous support from our clients as always, raised over £10 000. Will Aid offers a simple way to make your Will whilst supporting worthwhile charities.
How does it work?
How Will Aid works is quite simple – you make an appointment, we make your Will and instead of charging a fee you make a donation to the Will Aid charity. To try to make it as simple as possible for you to see one of our solicitors we are holding dedicated Will Aid appointment days in our Pitlochry, Blairgowrie and Perth Offices. Please telephone now to get your appointment booked – appointments are already filling up!
Will Aid appointments
Appointments are available throughout November. In our Pitlochry Office these will be available on Mondays and Tuesdays. In our Blairgowrie Office, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and in our Perth Office, Monday to Friday. Other appointments might be available – just call us.
Our Solicitors will be happy to discuss your Wills, explain Powers of Attorney to you, and answer any queries you might have on care home fees planning and family trusts.
Donation to charity
This year the recommended donation is £95 for a single Will and £150 for ‘mirror image wills’ for a couple. These are for standard wills that deal with the appointment of executors, deal with legacies and distribution, but without any complex tax planning or trust provision. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer tax planning and trust advice as part of Will Aid.
Will Power – make a difference
You will gain peace of mind by writing your Will, setting your affairs in order or providing for your loved ones, whilst supporting charity at the same time.

At Macnabs, we can advise you on Trusts, including managing your tax liabilities, making charitable provisions and generally putting your affairs in order.
Trusts are separate legal entities which hold assets for beneficiaries. They can be set up for a variety of reasons including saving on Inheritance Tax, holding investments, life policies, pension benefits, private company shares etc, supporting charitable purposes and holding capital for a period. They can also be used to avoid splitting ownership of a business, to take advantage of non-UK resident situations or to provide for a family member who is unable to deal with their own affairs.
Obtaining sound advice on Trusts is important. Our experienced team can review your situation, assess your objectives and advise you of the best course of action. We can also advise on other related matters, such as Wills and Powers of Attorney.

It also reduces the likelihood of family disputes. Most people know the benefits of having a properly drafted Will in place, however, many of us do not get round to doing it or forget to keep it up to date as our circumstances change.
If you do not have a valid Will, you are not in control of who inherits your hard earned assets. You cannot assume that any spouse, life partner or children will inherit everything.
If you die without a Will then the law will determine who will inherit from you and this may not be what you want to happen. In addition, there are also costly and time-consuming extra formalities required in administering your estate after you die if you do not have a valid Will.
For a Will to be legally valid, certain formalities have to be observed. Some of the important points on which we can advise you are:
Your situation may require more expert advice and we offer an Enhanced Will and Estate Planning Service to advise you on:
We can help you create the Will that best suits your needs and circumstances, or we can review your existing Will to see that it still reflects your wishes.
Our experienced Wills team can help. No matter how complex your requirements, we will help you write your Will in an efficient and legally binding manner as well as advising on related matters such as Inheritance Tax Planning and Trusts.
