Probate, Wills and Trusts

Our Private Client Department handles a broad range of services for its clients.

We recognise that making a Will or estate planning is not something that many people like to think about. However, a properly drafted Will and an effective, tax-efficient plan to minimise inheritance tax on death will inevitably ease the pain of bereavement and make life much easier for those left behind.

We specialise in helping with the problems of the elderly and those coming up to retirement and we will advise on the administration of estates, prepare powers of attorney and carry out work in the Court of Protection. We can also give you realistic advice on inheritance tax, estate planning and asset protection.

The areas of work handled by the Private Client Department include:

• Administration of estates
• Contentious probate
• Court of Protection deputyships
• Lasting Powers of Attorney
• Equity release
• Pension planning
• Tax planning
• Trusts and estate planning
• Will drafting
