Need a will drawn up, but also Inheritance Tax Planning advice to

[tllm2]

Getting a will sorted out has been on the 'to do' list for sometime and has finally reached the top.

On my research so far, it seems that virtually any solicitors (and others) can draw up a will, but what I think we really need along side that is help and advice on (avoiding) inheritance tax for the kids when the time comes.

Can anyone recommend such a service - either provided together or separately?

Try SAGA. I used them for a Lasting Power of Attorney.

We used Nick at Sussex Wills following recommendations on here. The process was very easy and convenient (he came to our house on a Sunday). We didn't go into inheritance tax issues so can't comment on whether he has knowledge of that kind of thing, but I guess you could contact him for a chat to discuss options first.

Ditto for us with Nick at Sussex Wills. Very happy - he is a recently retired solicitor so does have a good working knowledge of inheritance tax issues, though I don't think he would describe himself as a tax planner. Will PM his details if you would like or search on here.

Hi there - thanks for the recommendations - drop Nick a line with your query - I'm sure he'll be able to advise. [email protected]

FYI Nick offers a power of attorney's service also.

Just for the record - whilst he does have a working/basic knowledge of IHT, he isn't able to offer IHT planning advice - which is what we need.

Any other suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.
