Wrigleys' advice to attorneys and Deputies on making gifts

When an attorney or Deputy is looking after the financial affairs of a mentally incapable person they only have very limited authority to make gifts from the estate.

How can Wrigleys advise you?

Wrigleys advise clients on:

  • Obtaining the Court of Protection’s permission to make a gift; and

  • Inheritance tax (IHT) planning for the gift.
