Abigail Palmer-Page

As an estate administration specialist, Abigail works mainly for personal representatives of estates and assists them with every aspect of the probate process, including advising on inheritance tax reliefs, trust arrangements, post-death variations and international elements.

She also advises corporate clients, where she offers practical and commercial solutions to accelerate progress in dealing with the assets of a deceased individual.

Frequently, Abigail assists overseas law firms and executors who require advice on HMRC’s compliance obligations and applying for an English grant of representation for a non-domiciled deceased individual.

A confident communicator who builds trusted client relationships, Abigail understands that the period following a death is often a challenging time for clients. She explains technical concepts clearly and offers practical guidance that helps clients move forward. Clients appreciate Abigail’s calm efficiency and friendly approach.
