President David Morris introduced guest speaker Jerry Carrington, a legal consultant from Silvertime Legal based in Solihull. His talk centred upon ‘getting your affairs in order’ which included wills and inheritance tax. His message to Rotarians was not to leave these issues, but to do something about them now. To put Power of Attorney in place now. The big mistake was to leave these matters until they were too late.
He said his firm, which specialised in these areas of the law, would charge between £200 and £4,500 to give advice depending on what was needed. Jerry said they were privileged to give these talks, but could not give specific information on the night. If there were any members that could be seen at home and anyone interested in receiving further help and advice could complete a consultation form – which he distributed – for a free consultation.
