Expert planning advice
Considering the many changes introduced in recent years, it’s even more important for individuals to regularly manage their personal wealth. This should involve a review of lifetime giving and the distribution of assets on death. We can help with both areas.
Lifetime planning
Although changes have been made to the inheritance tax system it is still possible to take advantage of some of the valuable reliefs that have always been available, such as annual exemptions, small gift relief and gifts out of income.
Death planning
Wills need to be made and regularly reviewed to ensure that family assets and wealth are passed down through the generations. We can advise on how best to mitigate the taxation consequences.
