RUYSPRICING POLICY

We offer 7 advert sizes across 9 booklets with 3 different booking periods & a choice

of over 50 distribution quantities.

This flexibility gives customers thewidest choice of advertising options in the region relative to their business size, type

& budget.

That level of choice does mean that with so many options available it is impossible to produce a standard rate card, therefore all enquiries are priced depending on the size

& frequency of advert & the number of areas required.

We do publish sample costs based on a single advert, single area booking as a guide

but this does not reflect the significantsavings available on multi-area bookings.

For a bespoke quote based on youradvertising requirements simply email or call.

OUR AUTUMN SPECIAL DEALS

If you haven't made your will yet, here are somegood reasons for doing so;

• Many people now cohabit instead of marrying, including same sex couples. They think that they will be provided for if their partner dies. Without a will your next of kin may inherit everything instead of your partner.

• Do you have children from more than one relationship? If so you will need to specify how much of your estate they are to inherit and why.

At Emmersons we have designed a comprehensive questionnaire covering a range of issues that you should consider when making a will. We can also advise on the best way to reduce the potential for care home fees. Our aim is to ensure that your wishes are carried out without anyone being able to challenge your will. It could cost thousands of pounds and a lot of heartache if a will is challenged.

We also deal with Powers of Attorney andContested Estates.

Home visits are often available.

LEGAL MATTERSFOCUS AROUND HIGH HEATON

by Jacqueline Emmerson

emmersonssolicitorswww.emmersons-solicitors.co.uk

We’ve just separated, how are we going to afford to live?

CollaborativeFamilyLawyer

When couples separate they can often afford to cope in the short term by living off credit cards or using their savings. If one party feels that they are not to blame for the end of the relationship, eg. because their partner has been having an affair, then they are unlikely to agree immediately to a reduction in their household income. Why should they have fewer holidays or fewer nights out and why should their home have to be sold?

Emmersons family law solicitors deal with this scenario on a daily basis. We always try to deal with the emergency issues first. For example when can each parent see the children and will the mortgage be paid next month?

Things do change throughout the legal pro-cess. A person who may have been in a state of utter shock or have been consumed with anger will start to move on and see things in more practical terms after the initial separa-tion. The reality of the cost of running two homes starts to sink in.

So how can you make ends meet in the medium term? If your mortgage is being paid on a repayment basis then you could both approach your lender to see if this can be converted to an interest only mortgage. This can often release much needed funds.

Then look at luxury items. Do you need to have your dustbin cleaned out? Do you need all of the sports channels on Sky?

Do you need lots of little insurance policies for all of your electrical items?

You should make sure that you contact your council tax department if you are now the only adult living in the house. You will be en-titled to a 25% discount. You should attend to this as soon as your partner leaves the house. You may also be entitled to council tax benefit if your household income has dropped. You may be entitled to child tax credit or work-ing tax credit and you may be entitled to help with nursery fees.

We offer Collaborative Family Law at Emmer-sons Solicitors. (See emmersons-solicitors.co.uk, family law) As part of this process the two of you can reach agreement about shar-ing your incomes in a fair manner until the matrimonial home is sold. Or the property could be re-mortgaged by one party in order to buy out the other’s share. In any event you should each prepare a list of your financial needs, rather than your wants at this stage. If your lists are reasonable it may be possible, using the Collaborative process, to reach a medium term agreement that will work for all of the family.

Right Up Your StreetServing local communities since 2004

We have been producing our community information booklets every month for over 9 years. Starting with Wideopen & Cramlington, adding new areas along the way, we now produce 11 monthly issues.

That gives local businesses complete control over where they advertise. They do not have to commit to mass coverage through a single publication if that does not suit their budget or the geographical area in which they operate.

ALL our booklets are delivered throughletterboxes by professional distribution companies not left in supermarkets hoping passers by will pick them up. This givesguaranteed coverage for advertisers.

Many of our advertisers have been with us a long time, citing the effectiveness of this form of advertising and the open, honest, friendly, straight-forward way in which we operate. That relationship has proved beneficial for all.

11 monthly issues • 52,400 booklets • Over 100,000 potential readers

To find out more about advertising in the regions longest running family ofcommunity information booklets call 01609 773222 or email [email protected]

YOU CHOOSE where you advertise - and to how many people!

Advert costs are based on the coverage required - just call us for a quote
