Wills & Probate

Our professional team of quality solicitors offer a friendly, sympathetic and experienced Wills & Probate service.

Home visits are routine and can be arranged at short notice as and when required. Some of the matters we deal with comprise:

Making a Will
Amendments to existing Wills
Preparation of Lasting Powers of Attorney
Administering Estates on behalf of appointed Executors
Administering Estates of people who die intestate

With the rapid rise in the value of homes (notwithstanding the recent 'credit crunch') everyone should consider Inheritance Tax with everything in your estate being taxed at 40%. Making a Will should be one of the first things you do when considering Tax Planning.

We advise you on ways to reduce the value of your estate including setting up of a discretionary trust and minimising the tax burden on your death ensuring that the minimum amount of your estate goes to people you intend to benefit.

We can advise you on the legal and most cost effective aspects of administering and winding up of estates including advice on post-mortem Deeds of Variation.
