Inheritance Tax Planning

Glanvilles can provide expert advice on reducing the amount of inheritance tax (IHT) payable on your death. The first step is normally to review your Will and ensure it makes full use of available exemptions and your tax threshold or nil rate band.

The next step is to discuss with you to what extent you wish to make gifts during your lifetime or re-arrange your financial affairs. We can advise on the tax consequences of outright gifts, the use of trusts and the use of pensions. This will normally include a review of the inheritance tax, capital gains tax, income tax and stamp duty consequences. In appropriate cases, partners in Glanvilles are willing to act as trustees.

“On two occasions I have brought to Glanvilles what in my mind were no-hope cases involving claims against third parties outside of the UK (in one case a company headquartered in central Russia) and both times happily I have been proved wrong. People discount the power and professionalism of Glanvilles at their peril."

"Lorna and Charlotte, Thank you so much for providing us with such a swift and efficient service for the second time. You have been invaluable in making the transaction of both properties as seamless as it could be. You deal with everything with such speed, it takes a lot of stress out of the process to be given such a good service through fast responses and actions."
Havant
"We are very happy to endorse Glanvilles and Tom Oliver's services in particular. We found the Glanvilles team to be proactive, well considered and considerate to our situation. Tom took time to ascertain the situation thoroughly and explained the potential outcomes, referencing previous cases. He then formulated a plan of action and we made sure that we had all the relevant documents to hand should they be needed. It was a very stressful time following the bereavement of a loved one and it was worth every penny to have Tom's knowledge and expertise in our corner."

“I am just writing to express our thanks for the various advice's you provided and the efficient and professional way in which you executed matters relating to obtaining Probate on our late brother's estate and the sale of the property. I would have no hesitation in recommending Glanvilles to friends and acquaintances.”
Havant
“We were very pleased to work with Tom Oliver. He was very helpful and, most importantly, spoke to us in our language avoiding legal jargon. He explained things thoroughly and was happy to take calls and emails throughout our case as needed. He always got back to us in a timely fashion and also followed up with us to check on progress. We felt he negotiated a sensible price for the package of work. We would have no hesitation in working with him again and would highly recommend him to others."
