    Hi Delluver,

    Your parents can save the family £120,000 with some useful tax planning in their wills.

    Like others have said, it's particularly important in a situation such as yours as things could get unnecessarily messy and complicated (and expensive).

    Read the IHT article and the posts on the forum to gain a bit more understanding. To find a regulated, qualified and insured willwriter in their area visit https://www.ipw.org.uk
