Where you live matters less than you'd think
HMRC applies the same rules whether the business is in Devon or Durham. What varies from one region to the next is asset value and family shape, not the tax code.
We work nationally by video call. Documents are signed remotely or couriered when wet signatures are needed. Almost every client we've helped with this problem in the last twelve months has never set foot in our office — and none of them received worse advice for it.
The local estate planner you were referred to may or may not have handled this specific situation before. The right question is not "are they nearby?" but "have they done this ten times?"
What we'd actually do
- 1
Understand the estate
A short, structured conversation about what you own, where it sits, and who is meant to receive it. No jargon and no product pitch. This alone often reveals the problem.
- 2
Estimate the potential exposure
We estimate the potential exposure — including the changes coming in 2026 and 2027 — and identify which areas need legal drafting, regulated advice, or tax input. You see the shape of the problem, not an assumption.
- 3
Design the plan in the right order
We tell you which two or three decisions move the needle, and which are decoration. Most estates need three or four things done properly, not everything.
- 4
Put it in place and review
Documents drafted, structures set up, life cover written into trust where relevant, and a review schedule so the plan tracks your life instead of gathering dust.
