Wills, Probate, Tax and Trusts

We understand the importance of preparing for the future and ensuring your loved ones are provided for. Whether you need advice on preparing a will - including will writing or challenging a will, managing your estate or preserving wealth by limiting tax implications, our in-depth experience means we can help you reach the best solutions for you and your family.

Following the death of a loved one, we take a sensitive yet practical approach to guide you through every step of the way, from carrying out estate administration to resolving any disputes that may arise. This is also including inheritance disputes.

Our team includes eight members of STEP (Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners) – a professional organisation for practitioners who specialise in family inheritance and succession planning. Read more about our STEP members here.

Whether you are looking for help in writing your will or need to deal with a loved one's estate after their death, we have people across the UK who can help - be that in Cambridge, Leicester, Manchester, Milton Keynes, Northampton or Norwich.
