Tim Bishop, senior partner, thoroughly enjoyed his interview yesterday with the excellent Ian Hislop for the 2nd series of Radio 4's "Ian Hislop’s Oldest Jokes", due for broadcast in June.

They chatted about the history and reason for lawyer jokes, and Tim shared some of his favourites.

It's clear that inheritance tax is no longer just for the rich.

Don’t take any chances – contact our team for your specialist inheritance tax planning advice today.

By 2029–30, the share of deaths liable for inheritance tax is forecast to rise to reach its highest level in over 50 years.
