Need Advice?
As a firm we can also advise on the rules relating to Inheritance Tax (IHT), which can be notoriously complicated and are presently under review.
When the so-called “death duties” were first introduced it had been intended that they were levied only on the largest estates, but the steady increase in house prices has meant that an increasing number of people have found themselves liable to pay the tax as the years have gone by.
At OGR Stock Denton, our lawyers are able to advise you on how the rules are likely to be applied to any given estate and the options available for reducing your liabilities. We can also offer guidance on matters including lifetime gifts, IHT reliefs and assets exempt from tax

“ All round brilliant team at OGR. After being badly let down by another solicitor, Priti Shah sorted our parents’ probates quickly and efficiently. She is very knowledgeable and on the ball and structured things in such a way she saved us lots of money. We also had conveyancing done by Ben Menaham which was smooth and hassle free and overseen by Michael Stock. Thank you.”

“Me and my family where introduced to OGR Stock Denton regarding a number of matters that we needed to resolve. Not only was there a lot of money at stake but this was a dispute that involved family so a lot of emotion too. There was nothing the firm couldn’t do, we loved the fact they had an expert for every area we needed to deal with and they are very good at leveraging their colleagues experience and expertise. With regards to Ian Pearl who was our main point of contact, he was thorough, patient and always one step ahead. He was very good at making things manageable and would keep you informed every step of the way. I don’t think it is unfair to say that without Ian our current position as a family could be very different! We are extremely grateful and cannot thank OGR Stock Denton and Ian for their exceptional work and persistence throughout!”
