About Our Site
InheritanceIssues was formed to offer a unique reference point on planning for and protecting your inheritance.
Inheritance is a tricky subject. We all want to ensure that our possessions are passed on to our loved ones when we die - and, at the same time, we all want to make the act of inheriting as simple as possible.
But, given the importance of the inheritance process, there is a surprising lack of information available. That is where InheritanceIssues comes in.
InheritanceIssues was established with the aim of providing a comprehensive resource for those concerned about planning and protecting their inheritance. Whether you are set to inherit or you are planning your will, InheritanceIssues is here to guide you through the process.
The dreaded Inheritance Tax adds another important dimension to the inheritance process. We have compiled a series of articles to help you minimise the cost of inheritance tax, and to encourage you to plan ahead.
All of our articles are written by experts in their field. It is important to remember, though, that nothing on this website constitutes advice. You should always seek professional assistance before taking any action.
Inheritance rules can be a murky subject - but it is one with which we should all be familiar. InheritanceIssues is here to demystify it, and to help guide you through what can otherwise be a difficult process
Our concern was that there was no single UK resource for interesting features and practical advice on this subject.
Our features and articles are written by experts - who have experience, or a particular interest in this area.
