I was told by my fathers solicitor that an Enduring power of Attorney is more important than a will. It does not cost that much to make. My father's solicitor went to visit him without me being present before the papers were signed to make sure he was not being coerced into anything and understood what it entailed. The document is only valid until the person it is to protect is living.On their death it is null and void. I would think that Studio 25 's advice about the CAB is worth taking. Some solicitors do give free advice in some circumstances too. I would suggest finding out which solicitor drew up the document and have a word with them. Good luck.
