I help clients prepare for and deal with some of the more challenging times in life, in particular old age, incapacity and death.

I can help you think through difficult issues relating to your estate, inheritance tax, family dynamics and other matters.

Depending on your needs, I can assist you with the preparation of Wills, Powers of Attorney and Trusts, advising on inheritance tax, legal rights, business succession, care charges and other related areas and helping and advising you when a relative is ill or following a death.

I have particular experience of dealing with succession to interests in crofts. I also advise charities on constitutional issues and setting up new charities.
