Why GLCS

Serving Hailsham and the Surrounding Area

Hailsham sits at the heart of a broad rural catchment that extends to Heathfield, Horam, Polegate, and Wilmington to the south. The Wealden district has a significant agricultural heritage, and a number of our clients in this area have farming or rural property interests that need particular care in the context of Will writing and estate administration. We are experienced in advising on these matters and in ensuring that the legal documentation reflects the client's wishes accurately and efficiently.

We draft Wills for Hailsham clients following a thorough telephone consultation. We take instructions on all of the client's assets and circumstances, explain the options available, and produce a Will that achieves what the client wants in the clearest possible way. Where clients hold agricultural land or rural property, we consider whether agricultural property relief or business property relief might be relevant to the inheritance tax position, and we advise accordingly.

Probate for Hailsham estates is handled through the Brighton Justice Centre and the Brighton District Probate Registry. We manage the administration from end to end on behalf of executors, dealing with HMRC, the probate registry, and all financial institutions. We provide regular updates to executors and beneficiaries and work to conclude each administration as promptly as the nature of the estate allows.

Lasting Powers of Attorney are important for Hailsham residents of all ages. We prepare both the property and financial affairs LPA and the health and welfare LPA, and we handle registration with the Office of the Public Guardian. We also advise adult children who are supporting a parent through declining health, explaining the difference between a registered LPA and a deputyship order through the Court of Protection, and helping families understand what options are available to them.
