How can we help?
Making a will
Whilst it is not a pleasant topic of conversation, it is a fact of life that we’re all going to die eventually. The consequences for those who are left behind can lead to all manner of difficulties and complications, if the deceased did not make any plans for the inevitable.
Aside from the obvious issues about deciding who you would like to inherit your property, there are many other things to take into consideration when you are thinking about making a will. If you have family who rely on you to support them and you die without having made proper provision you may leave them unable to pay the mortgage or other household bills.
Arguably a will is the most important document that you will ever make, and you should not be without, especially if you have a partner and or children.
Our Private Client team can help advise you and answer any questions you may have.
Estate planning
Our estate planning service involves reviewing the current make up of your estate and the current exposure to taxes, including inheritance tax (IHT). This service is offered by our most experienced lawyers and is tailored advice to your specific circumstances.
We will review the assets and liabilities included in your estate and what is likely to change from a business, financial or family perspective together with any other interests you may have which could impact on your tax exposure.
We will then provide holistic advice on the appropriate solution and a roadmap for how to achieve your aims. We provide comprehensive advice in person but also in writing to ensure that you have that advice and information to refer to in years to come.
We provide advice in plain English without legal jargon.
