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.
