    Deed of Assignment as part of an ongoing will distribution

    Laura undertook to complete the distribution of my husband's will since my previous solicitor was unable to do it. A difficulty had arisen from the way the Inheritance Tax had been paid and Laura explained that I could solve my problem with a Deed of Assignment. I was happy to let her prepare this for me.
