Care Fee Planning
At Pictons Solicitors, we provide expert legal guidance to help you create a care fee plan and safeguard your estate. Rising care costs can put your assets at risk, but with the right planning, you can secure your and your loved ones, financial future.
Why Plan for Care Fees?
Care costs are increasing, and many families are unprepared for the financial burden. Without a plan, your home, savings and investments may be used to fund care. Early planning ensures that you retain control over your finances and receive the best possible care without unnecessary financial strain.
