Planning for the unexpected is a webinar specifically designed to prepare you and your loved ones for the events that we all know will happen at some point in our lives, but nevertheless still come as a shock when they do. In this session we will be teaming up with one of our legal connections at Howes Percival, Alexandra Hornsby, to talk candidly about how these events impact our families financially and what we can do to minimise the inevitable financial disruption. Whether it is writing a Will, establishing a Power of Attorney or passing money on to future generations efficiently, we need to be having these conversations, as it will be worse if the conversation is never had. At first glance these subjects can be overwhelming, so join us as our experts simplify these areas and walk you through how we have helped many of our clients handle the inevitable. Such conversations put you back in control and can give you peace of mind. The best plan for dealing with the unexpected is to prepare for it, so let us help you take those first steps today in finding out more.
