Bespoke Inheritance Tax Planning (IHT) advice
The freedoms we enjoy in modern day Britain include the opportunity to arrange your financial affairs to benefit family, friends or good causes – we doubt the exchequer is on your list for a legacy.
The starting point is to have a clear understanding of how much you’re worth, if this is likely to rise or fall in the future, and what options are available to you today and over the long term.
An unexpected Inheritance Tax bill can cost your loved ones hundreds of thousands of pounds and may require the forced sale of your family home and other assets – an added stress at an already difficult time.
The good news is that there are ways to legally avoid large IHT liabilities. With proper Inheritance Tax planning and thinking ahead you can leave your beneficiaries as much of your estate as possible.
