Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Post Death Tax Planning, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

I was my mother's sole executor and my brother and I were the sole beneficiaries. Over the past 3 years after my mother went into a care home, my brother had been very difficult. Having stolen £120,000 from my mother's bank accounts, he was furious when our mother revoked his power of attorney. He coerced her into revoking my power of attorney, but the care home alerted Kent County Council safeguarding team and the matter was investigated by the Office of the Public Guardian and my power of attorney remained,as my mother wanted. When it came to dealing with Robert as a beneficiary I knew he would be rude and bullying towards me. He wanted to know everything I had done as mother's attorney and my solicitor had already informed me that he had no rights to this information. I asked Jessica to communicate with my brother and send the inheritance to him. I therefore had no communication with my brother and no anxiety. Jessica gave my brother all the information concerning the estate that he needed and clearly but politely informed him of what he was not entitled to (anything that happened before mother's death).Jessica was very professional and my brother respected this and accepted the facts without argument, thus the estate was distributed very quickly. I cannot recommend Jessica highly enough, for anyone in a similar position, this will be money well spent.

It was a really speedy process, we had to take out a grant of probate in order to acquire funds after the death of a family member. The service was very professional, the amount quoted was cheaper than other law firms and all around was made very easy to do due to flexibility of the firm and high quality service

We were dealing with my father's will. It was complex and took time to sort out, but the help was invaluable.

Hilary Coles

Tagged solicitor Hilary Coles

Hilary Coles from Maitland Walker Solicitors handled 2 inherited property sales for me. Both of which were complicated and drawn out. Hilary dealt with any and all issues in a professional manner, she always returned my calls, answered my emails, kept me updated throughout and made what could have been a very stressful time into an acceptable experience. I would thoroughly recommend Maitland Walker to anyone.
