About Estate Planning
Implementing a plan to protect your wealth is one of the most important things that you will ever do. The first step on the road to successful estate planning is to have in place an up-to-date, valid will that expresses your wishes accurately.
People who fail to draft a valid will are considered to have died intestate. In this situation, the law lays down a standard set of rules for the distribution of their assets.

About Estate Planning
Inheritance tax
If you are single and your total assets exceed £325,000, the excess over this figure is liable to Inheritance Tax (IHT). For many married couples or civil partners, with the transferable nil rate band, the effective limit is £650,000. You may also benefit from the residence nil rate band. If you are passing property to direct descendants this is £175,000 per individual giving a total effective limit of £1 million for married couples or civil partners. We can consider various planning methods such as gifting, discounted gift trusts, loan schemes, life insurance in trusts and AIM related schemes.
Because your individual circumstances are unique, our estate planning service is tailored to suit your requirements.
If your total estate exceeds these limits, it is possible to plan so that payments of IHT are reduced or eliminated.
