Estate administration
When someone dies there are inevitably legal formalities involving estate planning that need to be addressed and acting as an Executor or Administrator can be an onerous task.
Our team understands how difficult and upsetting it can be to deal with the estate and assets of someone close to you, and aim to make the process as straightforward and painless as possible.
The experience we have in estate planning and administration allows us to offer you a full and complete service. Our experience has also taught us the value of getting to know our clients well, so that we can act for them well.
We can deal with all issues arising from a deceased’s estate, including those with a foreign element or where there is a dispute of some kind.
We advise on all reliefs from Inheritance Tax and deal with deeds of variation and on all aspects of probate and the administration of estates and estates planning including executor’s responsibilities, tax implications and any inheritance issues.
Certain circumstances dictate that wills can be rewritten after death in order to minimise tax liabilities. Such ‘Deeds of Variation’ can come into play when, for instance, a beneficiary wants to pass on their inheritance to the next generation. We can provide the advice to help you manage this area of estate planning.
Sometimes wills are challenged and claims made by both family and non-family members lead to heartache and disagreement. Talk to us today, and we’ll make sure your legal and financial affairs are looked after by people who care about you and your individual circumstances.
