Tax planning advice

We can advise you on all of the available options to legally and ethically reduce your tax liability, including for income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax. This includes helping you avoid, postpone or minimise different types of tax liabilities.

We can advise you on both UK and offshore tax planning, allowing you to make the best choices for your personal financial affairs. Our advice can help with both short-term and long-term tax planning so you can cut your tax liability immediately as well as putting in place measures to protect your assets for the future.

 

Using trusts to protect your assets

Trusts can act as tax-efficient vehicles for transferring assets to future generations and controlling the method in which money is distributed. They can provide an ideal solution in situations where benefactors are too young to manage their own financial affairs.

As well as containing cash, a trust can also comprise property and many other types of investments, so it’s an extremely flexible tool and can be customised to suit your needs. Furthermore, trusts can be effectively used to protect your assets in the case of difficulties such as insolvency and matrimonial claims.
