Our Wills, Trust & Probate Services

Probate

Dealing with a bereavement is difficult enough but sometimes you might also be required to handle the administration of a loved one’s estate.

We aim to make our estate administration pricing as transparent as possible. We strive to achieve this by offering fixed prices for our probate services rather than charging hourly rates or complex percentage rates.

Lasting Power of Attorney

Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document that lets you (the Donor) appoint someone you trust as an ‘attorney’ to make decisions on your behalf about things such as your property and affairs or personal welfare at a time in the future when you no longer wish to make those decisions or you may lack the mental capacity to make those decisions yourself.

A Lasting Power of Attorney protects your best interests and the best interests of your loved ones. If you wish to discuss your Lasting Power of Attorney, speak to an expert solicitor at Imperial Solicitors today. We not only have the expertise you need to create a Lasting Power of Attorney that secures you legally, but care deeply about your welfare and the best interest of your loved ones.

Declaration of Trust

A declaration of trust is an agreement created when assets such as property, shares or money are transferred to a small group of people known as ‘trustees’ to be held on behalf of one or more people who are the ‘beneficiaries’ of the trust.

Our legal experts can create a declaration of trust expertly based on your needs. Our specialist declaration of trust solicitors are on hand to help you with any enquiries you have about trusts and advise you on how to progress with your trust.

Inheritance Tax

Timely action may save your heirs from having to pay large amounts of tax. We may advise you to use a trust, either to save Inheritance Tax or provide an element of control in special cases, such as where a beneficiary is unable to look after his or her own affairs. Inheritance tax could have an impact on your estate if the value of your assets less your debts is greater than the inheritance tax threshold (£325,000 this tax year).

Through careful planning you can ensure that maximum use is made of your inheritance tax ‘allowance’ available on death. An inheritance tax efficient Will is a good starting point and, in most people’s cases, could be all that is needed.
