When somebody dies it is often difficult to know what needs to be done to get their affairs in order and where to start. We can assist in any aspect of estate administration, from initial guidance, putting together the application for probate, assisting Personal Representatives (both executors and administrators) through the administration or acting as Executors ourselves.

Trusts & tax planning

We can assist in planning and drawing up Trust documents on your behalf. A trust is a legal mechanism whereby assets are held by one party for the benefit of another. The use of trusts can save Inheritance Tax and is useful when trying to safeguard assets for young children or vulnerable individuals.
