Solicitors for Elderly Clients

As we get older, it becomes increasingly important to ensure our affairs are in order. Our experienced solicitors at Bookers & Bolton have extensive experience helping elderly and vulnerable people put in place appropriate legal solutions.

If you are considering releasing equity on your home to boost your income, or reinvest the capital, there are several options on the market. However, you must seek independent legal advice to ensure you fully understand what the process involves and that your legal rights and assets are protected.

We can also advise on the tax and property consequences to protect your interests if you gift your home to children or other family members.

Our team can also help clients who need to move out of their existing home into sheltered accommodation or residential care and need advice on the types of accommodation and the minimising of fees.

How We Charge

We are flexible with our fee arrangements and are always willing to discuss an option that suits you. Find out more about our different charging options by visiting the costs information page.
