Podcast 15: Helena Luckhurst – Private Client Lawyer with Fladgate LLP
Helena and I discuss the joy of inheritance tax, such as:
- The emotional impact that conversations (or worse lack of conversations) can have around planning for passing down wealth;
- Why deeds of variations are very useful;
- How good planning can enable people to capture an extra £350k worth of tax-free assets through the residents nil-rate band;
- Why pensions have become crucial wealth transfer vehicles since 2015;
- The options people have with generally their largest most illiquid asset – property;
And make sure you listen to the end to hear Helena highlight the key first steps when thinking about receiving or passing wealth along.
I hope you enjoy my conversation with Helena Luckhurst.
