Planning in Cambridgeshire
Why planning matters in Cambridgeshire
House prices around Cambridge mean many ordinary family homes are now worth more than the tax-free allowances for Inheritance Tax. A little planning, such as the right Will and making full use of both partners’ allowances, can make a real difference to what your family keeps. See Inheritance Tax planning.
Across the Fens and the rest of the county, many of our clients own farms, land or family businesses. With the changes to Business and Agricultural Property Relief from April 2026, it’s worth checking your Will still passes these on the way you intend. See Wills for business owners.

Free first meeting
Want to know where you stand?
John will look at your family, your home and anything else you own, and explain your options in plain English.
Will John come to me?
Yes. John meets clients at home across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, or somewhere local that suits you. You can also meet by video or phone.
Is a Will made in Cambridgeshire any different?
No. Wills across England and Wales follow the same law, so it doesn’t matter where you live or where we’re based. What matters is that it’s written for your family.
I own farmland. Do I need specialist advice?
Farms and land can bring extra Inheritance Tax and succession questions. We’ll talk them through and, where it’s needed, work alongside your accountant or land agent.
Other areas we cover
