You might be thinking about how to provide for your family with a lasting legacy, reduce the impact of Inheritance Tax (IHT), or leave a meaningful gift to a cause you care about. Whatever your intentions, planning ahead gives you greater control and the comfort of knowing your wishes are more likely to be carried out, just as you had hoped for.

We see estate planning as more than just paperwork. It is about peace of mind for you and your loved ones. It is about clarity and confidence, knowing that your financial affairs are in trusted hands, both now and for the future.

Why estate planning matters

A well-drafted Will is usually the first step.

It ensures that your estate is distributed according to your wishes and can help prevent complications or distress for those left behind. But estate planning does not end there.

Current IHT thresholds and exemptions mean that many more families are finding themselves unexpectedly affected. IHT can significantly affect the value of what you leave behind. Effective planning can help reduce this burden – though lifetime gifting, the use of trusts and other tax-efficient strategies.

Passing wealth through generations is a personal journey. Some clients want to support their children or grandchildren while they are still alive, helping with education, property, or business ventures. Others prefer to structure their estate to benefit future generations long after they have gone.

No matter what path you want to take, we are here to guide you through the options in a way that is clear, calm and reassuring.
