Our Services

We are exceptional strategic grand masters, in a forever changing legal landscape, game changers not players.

We have a panel consisting of a professional mix of solicitors/lawyers, chartered accountants, chartered surveyors, financial advisors, tax advisors all the collective aspects you need to provide a complete overview, structured advice and strategic plan (including preparing all the documentation).

We would highly recommend that everyone make a Will (even a simple one), to utilise the latest legal advice and case law (and our panel of experts) so your wishes can be carried out and your estate dealt with in the most tax efficient way. If you have no Will then your assets will be distributed or divided up as per the intestacy rules, this is quite strict and not tax efficient.

We can advise you on the following and more:

Wills & Trusts

Wills

We can draft simple or complex ones to make sure that those you care about get the benefit of your inheritance. Whether a simple Will, complex trust or multi asset probate matter we can assist you including succession planning. We take a pictorial view including estate administration, succession planning and tax implications.

Trusts

We can set up trusts as part of your Will or separately to make sure your assets are protected and family/dear ones are covered.

Probate & LPA

We can deal with administration of simple estates to detailed ones with multiple assets and liabilities. We can prepare all types of powers including general, lasting, enduring and appoint attorneys (people you trust) to take care of you, manage your property and assets if you lose capacity.

We recommend utilising trusts, they are useful tools:-

  • To pass on asset to the next generation (fund children and grandchildren’s education/deposit for home or investment)
  • Guard against care home fees
  • Provide for ex/partners, step children
  • Guard against divorce and children’s divorce (claims again their assets that you passed to them)
  • Provide support for vulnerable in old age/retirement (place to live, income)

We can make a bespoke plan for you to include discretionary trusts and take into account asset protection, wealth preservation, intergenerational wealth management, estate succession planning, so allowing Trustees to have greater powers (including management ones) to use for the benefit of the beneficiaries. We can also put assets into trust (land, property, shares/dividends, monies in accounts, policies, pensions, in order to generate Income (including rental) and for life insurance and future.
