Effective inheritance tax planning
With effective planning, however, the tax burden can be reduced substantially. Speaking with an experienced inheritance tax planning solicitor will provide you with information about the best options for you to ensure that as much of your estate as possible is passed on to the people and causes that are important to you.
Planning for inheritance tax through your Will
The most straightforward method of inheritance tax planning is through making a Will. Many people put off making a Will for another day, but without having a bespoke Will in place, you leave your estate open to the rules of intestacy and no opportunity to mitigate the inheritance tax paid on it. Our lawyers can expertly guide you through the process of making a Will, advising on opportunities to reduce your inheritance tax liability at every stage.
Preparing for inheritance tax through lifetime giving
We can advise you on the rules around lifetime giving, and also how this might be done to mitigate your inheritance tax liability.
Creating and utilising trusts to reduce inheritance tax liability
Setting up a trust or multiple trusts can be a very effective means of providing for those closest to you after you have died. It may also allow you to minimise your inheritance tax bill, to ensure as much of your estate as possible is passed to your chosen beneficiaries.
Arranging your affairs to take advantage of tax reliefs
There are various tax reliefs which may be available to you. Once we have taken instructions from you we can advise you whether you may be able to take advantage of such reliefs.
Business succession planning
In addition to personal tax exemptions and allowances there may be either Business Property Relief or Agricultural Property Relief available to you.
To discuss whether these might be available to you, contact us today.
