Wills Estates and Trusts

melanie_pratlett_150The importance of making and reviewing a will cannot be overemphasised. We are able to advise on tailor-made wills, and on tax-planning opportunities through gifts, trusts and other arrangements to save on inheritance tax, capital gains tax or indeed income tax. We can prepare your income tax returns and make capital gains tax calculations.

We advise on the formation and administration of trusts and, together with our networks of financial advisers, on a wide range of investments, insurance arrangements and pensions for trusts or individuals.

We also advise on all aspects of Charity Law, including the formation of charitable trusts, charitable companies and other bodies, the administration of charitable funds and the preparation of annual accounts and returns.

Another area on which we place importance and give advice is on the care of the elderly, community care and planning for the payment of such care. We arrange enduring powers of attorney where appropriate. We are able to provide a comprehensive service in relation to Court of Protection Receivership applications and their administration for those who have become mentally incapable of dealing with their finances.

We provide a sympathetic and efficient service in the administration of estates following death, including tax advice.
