Guide for retirement

Retirees and those planning for retirement have a new book that addresses all their questions

Retirees and those planning for retirement have a new book that addresses all their questions. Mr John Costello, a solicitor and the State's leading expert on age-related legal and financial issues, has just launched Law and Finance in Retirement. Readers can peruse sections on wills and tax, legal issues which arise after a person dies, possible legal arrangements for individuals who become unwell, occupational and personal pensions. Mr Costello also reports on the benefits available from the State, health boards and community and residential-care facilities. Contact information is listed for organisations that assist older people, citizens' information centres and local health boards.

The book is available from most book shops for £9.99.
