Terms of Use

Everything on this website is general information about estate planning. It is not legal, tax or financial advice, and it does not take account of your circumstances.

Allowances, thresholds, tax rates and the law itself change. Content that was accurate when written may not be accurate when you read it. Please take advice on your own situation before acting or deciding not to act.

Reading this website, submitting an enquiry form, or exchanging initial emails does not make you a client and does not create any professional relationship. That begins only when we have agreed the scope of work in writing and you have accepted our terms of engagement.

Will writing and estate planning are not reserved legal activities in England and Wales, and we are not a firm of solicitors. Where a matter requires a solicitor — contested probate or litigation, for example — we will tell you and can refer you on.

We do not provide regulated financial advice. Where investment or pension advice is needed, we will work alongside a suitably authorised adviser.

The text, design, logo and photography on this site belong to The Northern Legacy Co. or are used under licence. You may read, print and share pages for your own use, but not republish or use them commercially without permission.

Where we link to other websites we do so because we think they are useful. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content or their handling of your data.

We aim to keep the site available and accurate but cannot guarantee it will be uninterrupted or error-free, and we are not liable for loss arising from reliance on its content.

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.
