Our revised processing system has seen us expand across the UK into the Midlands and North West of England.
By careful planning we ensure that the maximum amount of your estate is left to your loved ones and aim to reduce the impact of fees such as probate or taxation where possible.
Our speciality is elderly care planning by assisting in the protection of your existing assets and maximising income as necessary, by referring you to an independent financial advisor (a fee is not always necessary).

Memberships
Roger has been a Dementia Friend Ambassador / Champion since 2017. Being a carer himself he understands the challenges faced on a daily basis when interacting with GPs, Occupational Therapy, District Nurses, carers, Pharmacists, A&E, rapid response and social services. It is for this reason that he understands the advantages of having valid Lasting Powers of Attorney in place, as he has seen staff attitudes change once others have the authority to speak up for loved ones.
The lack of provision for ill health during one’s life time and poor care planning is one of the biggest threats to personal and generational wealth. Fortunately, with proper planning we help families minimise the amount of inheritance tax that they choose to pay, protect children from being disinherited as a result of second marriages and protect estates from care fees and creditors.
Understanding the process of creating and retaining wealth within the UK and abroad is key.
