Wills

Many people are reluctant to make a Will because they do not want to address the thought of their death or they think that they do not have many assets and therefore a Will is not necessary. This can cause enormous hardship to relatives who have to handle your affairs after your death especially if there are children left behind or if at the time of your death you were living with a partner either married or unmarried.

Probate

Probate is the name given to the administration of an estate after someone's death. When a person dies it is necessary for somebody to deal with their estate by collecting in their assets and paying the debts and funeral expenses and distributing the remainder to those who are entitled under the Will or under the law of intestacy if no Will was left. In Order to have authority to do this they need to apply to the Probate Court for a legal document called a Grant of Representation. Read more about our probate expertise

Inheritance Tax

IHT is a tax imposed on the value of a deceased's estate at the date of death. The first £285,000 of the estate is free of tax and the excess above that amount is chargeable at 40%. There are certain exemptions/reliefs available that will reduce this liability. Read more about our inheritance tax expertise
