"My investments are looked after by caring and expert people"

Eames Laurie has looked after my financial matters for many years. I am more than happy with the advice and help I continue to receive.

The advice I receive is explained fully and I am able to contact Chris Fox whenever I have a problem. I feel very relaxed and contented to know that my investments are looked after by caring and expert people. I am extremely happy with the service I receive and have no hesitation in recommending Eames Laurie for all financial matters.


"Everything was explained very professionally."

A couple of years ago I was introduced to Eames Laurie whilst looking to reinvest my Stocks and Share ISAs. Their advisers were extremely helpful in directing me toward their ISA managed fund. Throughout the process everything was explained very professionally and at no time did I feel pressured in any way.

I can now monitor and manage my portfolio via their secure website. Would I recommend Eames Laurie ……. definitely without question.

"Always helpful and very friendly"

I have a very good working relationship and now friendship with Jim, and have done since 2007. His advice and guidance over the years have been perfect and I have recommended him to various people. I have my pension and investments (plus Company investments), and my Mothers investments with him, and we are both very happy.

The staff at Eames Laurie I have dealt with have always been helpful and very friendly.

"Considerable care and compassion"

I am totally satisfied with the service that I've received over the past two years from Eames Laurie. It has been a particularly difficult time for me, because a few months before, my wife had suddenly passed away. We both had financial investments with Eames Laurie.

I am very pleased to have Sarah Hall as my Financial Advisor. She always explains clearly, the financial advice that she offers. Furthermore, she has dealt with my situation with considerable care and compassion.

"Great communication, really quick response time and a pleasure to deal with"

A huge thank you to the team at Eames Laurie for all their hard work sourcing me a great deal on my mortgage so quickly. My circumstances meant that it was a slightly rockier road than their regular customers, even still, they were there every step of the way with some great advice on how to navigate smoothly through these issues.

Great communication, really quick response time and a pleasure to deal with, above & beyond, 5 stars from me.

Estate planning usually involves giving away or spending money

You may want your money to be used in a specific way or you may just want to make sure that it stays within your family when you're no longer here. 

Whatever assets or wealth you have accumulated in life, you will have your own personal plans for how your legacy is shared with those you care about. Keeping your plans up to date with the current inheritance tax regulation is important and the sooner you have a plan in place, the more options you’ll have for passing on your wealth efficiently. 

Working with our advisers we can help you to understand what’s involved in estate planning – as well as the implications of any decisions you make, so that your wealth is passed on in line with your wishes.

Inheritance Tax

Inheritance Tax (IHT) is one of the most complex areas of financial planning and the rules change frequently. IHT is a tax on the assets that belong to you when you die. Assets include the total of everything owned by you and a share of anything owned jointly. Here are the most common assets:

  • Personal property
  • Real estate and land
  • Shares
  • Cash
  • Future inheritance

Some assets are exempt from IHT or are at least eligible for a reduced rate. They include certain types of businesses, agricultural and woodland property, and heritage assets (a building, land, or objects of national scientific, historic or artistic importance).

We will advise on investment products that help manage your inheritance tax position effectively whilst you retain the use and control of the capital.
