Our estate planning services
At Stephensons in Manchester, we provide a comprehensive range of estate planning services, including:
Will writing
A well-drafted Will is the cornerstone of any effective estate plan. Our solicitors will work with you to create a Will that clearly outlines your wishes, ensuring that your assets are distributed according to your intentions and reducing the potential for disputes among your heirs.
Trusts
Trusts are a versatile tool in estate planning, allowing you to manage and protect your assets during your lifetime and beyond. We can advise on the best type of trust to suit your needs, whether it’s for tax planning, protecting assets for future generations, or managing charitable donations.
Lasting powers of attorney
Appointing a lasting power of attorney ensures that your affairs are managed by someone you trust in the event that you become unable to make decisions for yourself. Our solicitors can guide you through the process of appointing attorneys for both health and welfare and property and financial affairs.
Estate administration
Managing an estate after a loved one passes away can be complex and time-consuming. Our solicitors are experienced in all aspects of estate administration, from applying for probate to distributing assets in accordance with the Will or intestacy rules. We aim to make this process as smooth and stress-free as possible for you.
Inheritance tax planning
Effective inheritance tax planning can help to minimise the tax burden on your estate, ensuring that more of your assets are passed on to your beneficiaries. Our solicitors can advise on various strategies to reduce inheritance tax, including gifts, trusts, and other tax-efficient methods.
