Description

Written by leading lawyers in the field, this book is a guide to the tax efficient drafting of wills, administration, and estate planning in the UK. It provides practitioners with help and guidance on everyday UK estate planning and will drafting, and it discusses the typical problems and pitfalls that may be encountered in practice. The precedents have been carefully selected to deal in a straightforward fashion with common client needs. The book begins with an examination of the essential UK legal framework, which underpins this area of practice, looking in turn at wills, trusts, and taxation through a combination of detailed and authoritative commentary; worked examples; and expertly drafted precedents. It then examines specific topics including: the transferable nil rate band * using immediate post-death interests * provision for minor children * pilot trusts * instruments of variation and disclaimer * tax efficient administration * agricultural property relief/business property relief. The authors' narrative commentary is supplemented by 40 precedents which are included on an accompanying CD-ROM, allowing users to download and adapt each document as necessary.
