Succession and Estate Planning
Taking the first steps in deciding what should happen to your assets during your lifetime and after you're gone can be daunting, but it is undoubtedly easier for your wishes to be carried out if there is a clear plan in place.
Complex rules and constant changes to tax legislation, including those made to Inheritance Tax (IHT), mean that planning is vital to ensure that you benefit from the available exemptions and reliefs.
Taking time to structure your affairs now can help maximise the wealth you pass on and can protect loved ones from unexpected tax liabilities.
Our approach
A review of your affairs can help us to establish your current tax exposure and provide advice on the best options available. This often involves reducing the value of your estate through gifting or structuring future growth, family investment companies, life insurance policies, or other estate and succession planning methods.
The options for Inheritance Tax (IHT) Planning can appear complex and daunting. However, our team will guide you through, ensuring your family is protected after you are gone.
