A recent report by the Office of Tax Simplification (OTS) contains a number of recommendations to deliver “a more coherent and understandable structure” to inheritance tax. These recommendations have been put to the government to consider and have not yet been acted upon but it does certainly highlight scope for change to the current rules that are complex and often misunderstood.

Purchasing a property with your husband, wife or partner is an exciting milestone for many making it easy to look no further than getting your hands on the keys. How many of us stop to consider what happens to that property in the event the relationship breaks down in the future? It is not a particularly pleasant thought but nevertheless, it is a notion of importance, especially in the event of unequal contributions towards the property purchase.
One of our Private Client Solicitors at Neves, Nina Gurra, will be appearing on Radio Verulam's The Parents' Show on Thursday 8th February at 8pm.
A Supreme Court decision in the case of Mr Y, ruled last month that in certain circumstances it will no longer be necessary for the family of a patient with a “prolonged disorder of consciousness” to apply to the Court of Protection to withdraw life support.
At Neves our goal is to give our client’s peace of mind that after their passing their affairs and wishes will be dealt in accordance with their faith yet valid under English Law. For example we aim to ensure that wills prepared on behalf of our Muslim clients are compliant with not only their faith but comply with the requirements of English Law.
