Tax and Estate Planning

Integrated Approach to Planning

We are able to seamlessly combine your taxation requirements, (including the preparation and submission of your tax return) with your investments, your personal financial planning and your giving.

Our integrated approach to planning includes a detailed review of your overall financial position and takes account of personal tax and how this affects for example the overall investment return that may be achieved.

We employ a highly talented and qualified tax and estates team who not only review investment portfolios but also assist in the preparation of estate plans.

Through careful planning and the use of tax efficient investment vehicles we design financial strategies for you, which have the potential to save you thousands of pounds.

Steve Griffiths heads up the Tax and Estates department. Steve and his colleagues advise on a wide range of personal tax matters, including income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax planning.

Steve has built up a substantial amount of experience in advising entrepreneurs on minimising capital gains tax.

We believe that it is our integrated approach to financial planning that makes Paradigm Norton unique. All our clients benefit from our three core services of:

Comprehensive Financial Planning
Personal Tax and Estate planning
Investment Portfolio Management

Estate planning:

You will often be faced with crucial decisions on estate distribution.

How much should be passed to your children without destroying their personal self-motivation?
How and when do you tell your children how much they are worth?
How can you efficiently distribute your estate to those specified in your Will whilst still retaining sufficient capital to cope with the unforeseen, such as residential nursing home fees?

Many of these issues are of significant concern to our clients. We arrange frequent client dinners to discuss these types of issues and encourage you to share your stories and discuss how you have sought to resolve such problems. Our client dinners are always well attended and stimulate lively debate.

How much does our tax and estates service cost?

Unless otherwise agreed, our professional fees for our tax and estates service will be based on the time we spend working on your behalf, and the expertise and experience of the tax team involved.

Once agreed, fees will be confirmed in writing and invoiced directly to you.
