Inheritance Tax Advice

Inheritance tax is often considered to be a tax on death, but your actions during your life can have considerable effects on its level. If you are undertaking a transaction or changing your asset profile it makes sound financial sense to think about advice on Inheritance Tax.

You need to be aware when you change your asset profile that you could be going from one which qualifies for Business Property Relief (BPR) to something which does not. If you are making a transfer into a trust, then Inheritance Tax may also be payable.

Helping you reduce your inheritance tax liability

It is not just those with large estates where Inheritance Tax applies; it can be a big burden for many people. The prospect of passing on as little as 60% of your wealth to your loved ones is not a prospect most individuals would like to contemplate. This could result in the sale of assets to pay the Inheritance Tax which could be especially distressing if the asset is the family business.
