Life Policy

Life policies can be written in trust. The main reason for doing this is so that:

  • the policy proceeds can be claimed immediately after the death of the life assured, instead of having to wait until the grant of probate has been obtained
  • the policy proceeds stay outside the estate of the life assured, which can save inheritance tax (IHT)

The detailed small print in life policies can be difficult to understand. Hart Brown can add value by drawing on the extensive experience and expertise of our specialist lawyers and our in-house financial planners to advise on life policy trusts.

To speak to someone who can advise on a life policy trust call, email or request a call back from one of our specialist lawyers.
