Advice
Our STEP qualified advisers have both the experience and sensitivity to ensure that the tax affairs of an estate is handled accurately and professionally, reducing the burden in what can be a difficult and emotional time.
An executor is the person responsible for dealing with the administration of your estate after your death. In situations where there is no executor, often because there is no will, family members may apply for a grant of administration.
