Our telephone number will remain the same – 020 8644 5050.
We offer FIVE main services:
Wills
Sadly, some 75% of adults in the UK have not made a Will (i.e.they will die intestate). If you die without making a Will, you may leave your family months/years of financial hardship, grief and expense sorting things out. It is worth noting that:
- Your spouse/civil partner will NOT inherit all your estate.
- Social Services will decide who would look after your children, and initially they may even be fostered!
- Your children will inherit part of your estate, but may have to sell the family house first.
Remember it is never too early to make a Will, but it is often too late!
Please phone us on 020 8644 5050 for details or click here for more information.
Inheritance Tax (IHT) Planning
Having paid some 40% in income tax during your whole lifetime, many of us strongly object to our beneficiaries having to pay 40% again in Inheritance Tax when we die. This tax is often called "the only voluntary tax in the UK" as it is often avoidable.
By skilful use of tried and tested methods, it is often possible to avoid Inheritance Tax.

Probate is the "winding up" of someone's estate after they die. For a fraction of the fee charged by High Street Banks and Solicitors, we will prepare a valuation of the estate, arrange for the necessary Court application, pay any outstanding bills and then pass on the balance to the beneficiaries.
