• Simple Wills 

• Discretionary Trusts

• Lasting Power of Attorney

• Court of Protection applications

• Estate Planning and Probate

If you would like a legal clinic appointment, please phone us on 0114 278 8942 or email us at [email protected].uk   The clinics are usually held over the phone, but if you have difficulties communicating this way please let us know.  

We also run occasional group workshops offering general legal information.
