Lasting Power of Attorney
A lasting power of attorney (LPA) is a legal document that gives a named person (or persons) the power to make decisions on your behalf if you are no longer able to make decisions for yourself.

Trusts
Put simply a Trust is like a giant shoebox - and whatever assets you put in including your home are protected from the likes of HMRC, Local Authorities and Creditors.
They are no longer for Rich and Famous or the laned gentry and can be a useful way from protecting your home from Long Term Care fess.
Inheritance Tax
According to the UK government the definition of inheritance tax is "a tax on the estate (the property, money and possessions) of someone who' has died". It can often be a large sum of money, depending on the size of the estate and can be something that people want to avoid if they can.
