Inheritance Tax and Estate Planning

Helping you preserve your wealth and provide for those you care about — now and for generations to come.

Making Your Wealth Work for Your Family’s Future

Passing on your wealth to the people you love is important — but it can feel complex. Inheritance rules, tax considerations, and life changes all make it easy to feel uncertain about the best way to protect what you’ve worked hard to achieve.

That’s where Chesterton House comes in. We help families and individuals with significant assets organise their finances so wealth is passed on efficiently, supporting loved ones while keeping your own financial independence secure.

Questions You Might Be Asking:

How can I reduce the impact of Inheritance Tax?
Will my loved ones be cared for after I’m gone?
How can I treat my family members fairly?
What kind of legacy do I want to leave?
Would setting up a trust be right for me?

How We Help You

Our goal is to make sure your wealth ends up where it matters most — in the hands of the people and causes you care about. While reducing Inheritance Tax is part of the picture, we focus on the bigger goal: creating a legacy that reflects your values and wishes.

We take the time to understand what matters to you and build a plan that goes beyond the numbers. Wills and trusts are often just the starting point. Whether your priorities are:

Ensuring family members are looked after,

Supporting a cause close to your heart, or

Simply enjoying the time you have with loved ones,

…we’ll help shape a strategy that feels true to you.

For those who want to give back, we can explore options like lifetime gifting, volunteering, or contributing to a charity — including our own Chesterton House Foundation.
