grand childrens trust

[big-all]

also it specifically says in his will
"i direct the executors to give effect to any writings by me however informal they be provided they are signed by me dated after the date hereof and clearly expressive off my intentions,as to which my executors shall be the sole judges"

his total estate is below inheritance tax [285k] including all gifts in the last 7 years

The threshold has been 325k since April 2009; or are you saying your dad left 285k?

is it now safe to dish out the assets[cash] or have we forgotten anything?

If you mean the money which is not going into the trust for your nephews and nieces, I would have thought it was safe to dish it out.

yes 285 we also can use my mums allowance taking it up to 650k but not nessisery
not the 50k but the other 235k lol

i have gone into it in great detail but off course i am only human so hence the question more for reassurance as my brother are not being as helpfull as they could be
