Wills, Trusts & LPAs in Ollerton

Estate planning in Ollerton
Ollerton has two sides to it — the pretty old village with its restored watermill and the River Maun, and the larger New Ollerton that grew around the colliery — with the magnificent Rufford Abbey and Country Park and the heart of Sherwood Forest right on the doorstep. Taking in Boughton, Edwinstowe and the villages of the Dukeries, it is a settled community where families often have deep local roots. The people we help here are frequently long-standing homeowners keen to keep things simple and fair for their children, or families who have realised, through caring for an older relative, just how valuable a Lasting Power of Attorney can be. We give patient, tailored advice to each.
