Business Wills

You may, like many people run a small business.  It is therefore likely that this business will form part of your estate.  To ensure that your business can either continue, be closed down or sold, your Will should include clauses to give specific business related powers to your executors.

• If you are a sole trader - Do you want the business to continue?  If you employ staff, who will pay them? 
• Partnerships - Will the partnership continue if one member dies?  Is there  a Partnership Agreement in place?  If a transaction needs two signatures, who will sign? 
• Limited Company - Do the Articles of Association say what will happen to your shares?   

You may also care to consider what would happen if you became incapable of manageing your financial affairs.  By preparing a Lasting Power of Attorney, you could give someone you trust the ability to keep your business running till you could resume control. 

As the saying goes - If you fail to plan, you plan to fail
