Strategic advice to legitimately reduce your inheritance tax liability and preserve your family's wealth.
Request a Free ConsultationInheritance Tax (IHT) is charged at 40% on the value of an estate above the nil-rate band threshold (currently £325,000). With the addition of the Residence Nil-Rate Band (up to £175,000 per person for a main residence passed to direct descendants), a married couple may pass up to £1 million free of IHT.
However, many families still face significant IHT liabilities without proper planning. With the right structures in place, it is possible to legitimately reduce — or even eliminate — IHT while ensuring your loved ones receive the maximum possible inheritance.
A carefully drafted Will can ensure nil-rate bands are fully utilised and assets are passed in the most tax-efficient manner.
Discretionary and life interest trusts can remove assets from your estate while still providing for your family's needs.
Strategic use of annual exemptions, potentially exempt transfers, and other reliefs can significantly reduce your taxable estate over time.
