Understanding Estate Planning

What is inheritance tax?

Inheritance Tax is a tax imposed on the total estate of someone who has recently passed away. This includes any property, money or possessions the individual owned when they died.

Why is it important to plan?

If you don’t fully map out what you want to happen to your estate when you are gone, you run the risk of that decision being made by a third party.

By planning in advance now, you are ensuring your wishes are being followed how you want them to be, creating a stable future for those that mean the most to you.

What can I include in an estate plan?

You can include anything in regards to your wishes, such as your Will, your funeral requirements, next of kin, power of attorney, dividing of the estate and anything you feel should be noted in the unfortunate event of you passing away or becoming incapacitated.

Paul Lee, my Lifetime financial advisor, has been an absolute star is guiding me through the process of setting up a drawdown pension prior to my retirement and arranging the monthly pension payments following my actual retirement this month. I have every confidence that Paul is working in my best interests but is always mindful of his responsibilities regarding ethical behaviour and the needs of his own employer. Well done Paul - I look forward to a long and fruitful working relationship with you.

We recently used Lifetime as our fixed rate mortgage deal had come to an end and we were looking to switch to a new lender. Our mortgage Advisor, Scott made the whole process an absolute breeze. Communication was fantastic and he was very flexible when arranging meetings. Everything ran smoothly and I cannot fault a thing. Thank you again!

Chelsea Lowther

I felt that I should look into how to seek help in securing my financial position for my remaining years. I am 72. Lifetime have shown me the way to do this. They have given me the confidence to release part of my funds for them to reinvest with a view to keeping up with the rising cost of living. Kristain at Lifetime patiently guided me through the investment procedure and made sure I understood every step. I am looking forward to feeling more relaxed about my future now I have seen the projected figures drawn up by Lifetime’s experts and feel I am in safe hands.

Lifetime have offered great customer service and impartial advice to help my family and I plan for the next 5-10 years to meet our financial and life goals. Paul has been very personable and explained products to both my wife and I who have varying degrees of knowledge on the financial products and he has been able to explain clearly to us so we have a full appreciation of the full product set. I feel lifetime have our personal interests at heart and often ask us to keep more cash aside to enjoy life whilst still reaching our goals. Great customer service, both personal and professional and a joy to deal with.
