ESTATE ADMINISTRATION: Deceased’s nominees can now be given access to Apple iCloud

Apple has released a digital legacy feature allowing account holders to nominate up to five family members or friends who will be able to access their account after they die. These contacts will be given a code allowing them to access data stored in iCloud, if they have a copy of the death certificate. Until now, court orders have been required to gain access to a deceased person’s digital data.

Could you do with some FREE, sound advice on:

  • Writing a Will – What do I need and how much does it cost?
  • Creating Lasting Powers of Attorney – If I was incapacitated who can act on my behalf?
  • Property Protection Trusts – Can these really save Care Home Fees?
  • Pre-Paid Funeral Plans – With so many to choose from how do I decide which plan is best?

There is so much confusion on these vital areas of estate planning, that sometimes just a chat with an expert in the field can clear up misunderstanding and set out the way ahead, without all the legal jargon.
