Much time and expertise has been spent in developing this department over the years which has grown considerably while continuing to serve a large number of long-standing clients since the 1950s. Confidentiality and a personalised service are hallmarks of this department.

The importance of making a Will cannot be overstressed. Each Will is tailor made for the client, taking into consideration his or her personal financial circumstances, family and commitments and the possible incidence of taxation and in particular Inheritance Tax.

We ensure that the estate is administered with sympathy as well as with efficiency. This involves obtaining valuations of all the assets of the estate, agreeing the tax liability, applying for the Grant of Probate (or letters of Administration in the event that there is no Will) and then with the benefit of that Grant gathering in the assets of the estate and administering them according to the Will or according to Law as the case may be.

In some cases Trusts may arise under the provisions of a Will or an intestacy and that Trust could last for many years. We have considerable knowledge and experience in administering such Trusts
