This area covers post‑humous changes to a will, typically called a deed of variation, which allows beneficiaries to redirect someone’s estate after death. It is usually done within two years of death and must satisfy tax and legal requirements to be effective. A solicitor explains the options, draws up the deed, coordinates with executors and beneficiaries, and helps ensure the variation is valid for inheritance tax planning and the intended outcomes.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The deed of variation can change who inherits and may affect tax positions and eligibility for benefits. A solicitor provides certainty about the formal steps, potential tax consequences, and the legal effect of the variation if it is executed properly.

Tagged solicitor Karen Woods

My family and I used Russell & Russell for the sale of our late mother’s property. Karen Woods and her team provided an excellent service. They were supportive, approachable and always responded quickly to questions and queries. The online portal was easy to use and aided the smooth running of the conveyancing. I’d have no hesitation in using their service in the future or recommending them to others.
