If we were in care someone would need to make our decisions for us

Writing a Will or arranging a Power of Attorney can offer comfort and reassurance in times of uncertainty.

Mr Robert McCreath and his wife Agnes, based in Maryhill, Glasgow, recently went through the process of updating their Wills with ILAWS, as there were certain aspects which they wanted changed.

“We’ve been clients of ILAWS for just under a year,” said Mr McCreath, 73, who had seen the company advertised in the paper.

“After contacting them about changing our Will, we had the paperwork through in about a week.

“We’re really happy with them and all of the information they provide; we would definitely recommend the company to other people who are thinking about writing or rewriting their will - absolutely.

“The information they provide is great and it’s impressive how quickly they get back to you and get things moving.”

The recent turmoil brought about by the pandemic has left many people feeling compelled to prepare themselves for any uncertainties the future may hold.

After speaking with Elaine from ILAWS, therefore, Mr McCreath took her advice and decided to arrange a Power of Attorney to protect himself and his wife, 72, in the future.

“It’s just me and Agnes in the house, we don’t have any immediate family, so if we were to be taken into a care home or were unable to make decisions for ourselves, we would need someone there to make the difficult decisions for us.

“Everything Elaine said made perfect sense so we decided to go ahead with it and she has been very helpful throughout the process,” Robert explains.

“My wife’s sister has agreed to be our Power of Attorney and the

paperwork is all under way.”

As the writing of a Will and granting Power of Attorney are legal proceedings, the process can sometimes be confusing. That’s why ILAWS is there for its clients from start to finish, and the company is always reachable.

“I couldn’t say a bad word about ILAWS. The information they give you and how quickly they do things for you just superb.

“If anyone I knew was looking for a lawyer or legal advice for anything, then I would certainly tell them to get in touch with ILAWS.”
