Post-death tax planning covers how to manage the tax implications after someone dies, principally inheritance tax and related duties, while organising the estate and trusted arrangements to protect beneficiaries. A solicitor helps by tailoring strategies around available reliefs, exemptions and make-up solutions like deeds of variation, gifting strategies, and using trusts to manage liabilities. They prepare and review documents, coordinate with executors and beneficiaries, and liaise with HM Revenue & Customs and probate offices to implement the plan.
The plan targets the timely and compliant settlement of the estate, with attention to deadlines for IHT forms and probate. A solicitor’s role includes explaining duties, ensuring valid elections and elections for reliefs, and guiding the process through the Court-based probate procedure and HMRC checks, while safeguarding beneficiaries through proper administration and record-keeping.
