Probate Execution and Estate Administration – West London

We are authorised to undertake probate and estate administration by the Institute of Chartered Accountants for England and Wales (ICAEW).

Save on Probate Costs

We offer a flat-rate probate service, typically costing £1,995 – £4,995.

By comparison, many solicitors charge 2% of estate value for probate services. This means for an estate valued at £500,000, they’d charge £10,000. So we’d save you at least £5,000.

The larger your estate, the more you’ll save. Plus we can also help reduce your taxes.

Lower Probate Taxes and Risks

• Even when presented with an existing will, we can help you minimise a wide range of taxes, such as:
  • Inheritance Tax
  • Capital Gains Tax
• We ensure your tax returns and submissions to HMRC are correct – and lower your risks.
• We can create and manage Trust Funds to secure your wealth for the future.

Probate Case Study

The Probate Problem

In his 80s, our client owned a hotel and wanted to minimise his inheritance tax (IHT) and ensure his estate passed to his children.

How We Helped

We used our combined expertise in tax planning, investment management and probate to meet his objectives. We then helped him implement it correctly – ensuring arrangements were watertight. Our probate arm will also administer his estate.

The Result

Our client’s estate will be passed on to children, and they will save £2m in taxes.
