Penrith Wills & Estates Lawyers

Preparing a Will, or making arrangements to appoint a Power of Attorney or Enduring Guardian, are tasks that many people put off. 

Whether they are uncomfortable with the thought of planning for their ill-health or death, or whether they simply don't know what they would like to do with their estate, all too often people leave it until it is too late - causing even greater problems and potential difficulties for family members and loved ones.

Lamrocks Solicitors have been helping individuals and families with their Wills and estate planning needs for over 100 years. We understand the issues you might be facing and can work with you, and your family, to ensure that your wishes are carried out in the event of your passing, as well as protecting your assets and estate both now and into the future.
