Our approach is to understand the valued business, its current and prospective performance, to undertake detailed target due diligence and report in a tailored fashion.

Probate Services in London
read moreThe death of a member of your family is a particularly difficult time for various reasons and coping with the administration of the estate is not always something which family members want to do themselves or feel capable of doing. Whilst this work is often done by solicitors or banks, personal accountants are particularly suited because of their knowledge of the deceased's financial affairs. We also believe that our charges are usually competitive as they are based on time taken rather than a percentage of the value of the estate.

The team utilise their strong organisational and project management skills to bring about the desired outcomes across the provision of in-house and third-party services including tax planning, legal, wealth management and financial protection aspects. Although the tax advisory services are provided by their in-house technical colleagues, the firm then works with panels of external partners, both in the UK and overseas, to deliver the legal and financial advisory solutions.
