Bespoke Instructions
Some executors deal with certain aspects of the administration of an estate but choose to appoint an agent to carry out specific tasks which they would prefer not to do themselves.
Executors are tasked with a large number of legal and administrative responsibilities, some of which can seem overwhelming. Our experts can deal with as many or as few individual components of an estate’s administration as an executor may require.
The completion and submission of HMRC’s inheritance tax return, an application to the court for probate, dealing with estate taxation – for example after the sale of a property or in relation to post-death income, or the preparation of estate accounts are all examples of bespoke work that our teams can undertake.
