Our legal services are particularly relevant to the elderly and we deal with a number of client matters including nursing home fees, tax planning, lasting powers of attorney and much more.
We have a range of elderly client services that our expert team can help you with. Whether you need to write your Will or are considering long term care for an elderly person, Crombie Wilkinson’s elderly care solicitors specialise in legal services for older people and their carers.
Whatever you decide about your future, it's important to involve a specialist solicitor for the elderly who will give you impartial advice and act in your best interest. We are members of The Association of Lifetime Lawyers (formerly known as Solicitors for the Elderly) and can help you with a wide range of elderly legal services.
Elderly legal services can be complex and confusing so timely advice is vital to avoid later complications. Our solicitors for the elderly can help you if:
Contact our elderly care solicitors in York, Malton, Pickering, and Selby today to see how we can help you.
Our Wills and Probate team have years’ of experience in handling even the most complex probate cases. Perhaps you simply need to write a Will; we can ensure this is professionally and legally written. In cases where an individual is deceased and has left no Will, our Probate solicitors in York, Malton, Selby and Pickering can discuss Probate plans in a sensitive and understanding way.
When an individual is no longer able to make fundamental decisions about their own care, a Lasting Power of Attorney allows someone else to make the key decisions that can affect that person’s well-being in the future. We can guide you through the process and advise you on the best actions to take.
When an individual requires long-term care from a specialist centre, such as a nursing home, we are here to offer advice to both individuals and their families. We can also advise on the funding process to help ease the strain of having to pay for expensive care homes.
There are a variety of reasons why someone may wish to transfer their home from their name in to that of someone else. The implications of doing this need to be fully understood by all involved. We can help you gift your home to a person or charity.
Did you know that the first £325,000 of someone’s estate is not taxed? Our tax planning solicitors regularly offer advice on inheritance tax and meet with our clients to discuss their estate and how they can ensure as much of their estate as possible is left to the individuals they desire.

Everything was explained clearly and as a first time buyer I found this particularly helpful.
Have huge confidence in Crombies, always listen, always act.
Having had previous property related work completed in a prompt and satisfactory manner we were more than happy to approach your company for further work on our behalf.
Your firm did an excellent job meeting my expectations at a sensible cost.

Our solicitor, secretary and the reception staff all excellent service.
Quick and easy, I have already recommended a friend, they are also using you to buy a house.
Your patience and support has been much appreciated. You helped me through a very difficult, frustrating time but I am already settled in my new home and the children all feel happy there, in fact they have hardly left!!
