Wills and Inheritance

At Martin Shepherd our Wills & Probate Team advise on all issues relating to wills and the administration of a deceased person’s estate. We fully understand that dealing with the death of relative or loved one is difficult enough without having to address the legal issues relating to the assets and debts involved, inheritance tax, capital gains tax and income tax. We seek to remove much of the pressure from you and enable an estate to be administered as quickly efficiently and stress free as possible.

Wills and Inheritance

What can we help with?

Our services include assistance with:

Wills

Too few people make wills which can often lead to their property and effects being received by people other than those intended and/or large inheritance tax bill being incurred. We give detailed and practical advice in relation to the making of a will, albeit at a very competitive rate.

Wills can be prepared at our offices or, for those who require assistance, home visits can be organised, for an additional fee.

  • For advising on and preparing a simple, single will: £325 +VAT
  • For advising on and preparing simple joint wills: £425 +VAT
  • For advising on and preparing a simple Codicil: £275 +VAT
  • For advising on and preparing simple joint Codicils: £375 +VAT

Please note, an extra charge will be made for home visits. There is a minimum of 2 visits per instruction. The likely fee is between £200 – £300 +VAT.
