Case Study: Paying the Right Inheritance Tax

Losing a family member can be a very distressing time, especially when this comes suddenly and is unexpected.

One of our dairy farming clients faced an inheritance tax bill of over £220,000 on their fathers estate which included 2 working farms. The sons of the deceased individual came to Armstrong Watson as their trusted advisors to review the correspondence they had received from their solicitors and H M Revenue and Customs.

We identified that the inheritance tax bill was incorrect as Business Property Relief was available which ultimately reduced the liability by £160,000!!

Are you prepared for the future? Do you understand the Tax payments you are making?
