Our Process & Fixed-Fee Model

How do you differ from traditional solicitors or accountants?

Unlike traditional firms that specialise in just one area, we coordinate legal, tax, and financial planning expertise across our in-house team, employed solicitors and independent regulated partners. This coordinated approach means you receive cohesive, strategic guidance rather than fragmented advice from multiple firms. Plus, our transparent fixed-fee model provides cost certainty that traditional hourly billing cannot match.

Do you offer ongoing support after implementation?

Yes, Bluebond provides ongoing support after your plan is implemented, including annual reviews, updates for changes in tax law or your circumstances, and continued support for your trustees or executors. Our relationship doesn't end with plan delivery, we're here to support your legacy for the long term.

Why choose Bluebond for your inheritance tax advice?

We combine specialist expertise across law, tax, and financial planning with transparent fixed fees and a long-standing experience. 19 out of 20 clients pay zero inheritance tax. Our unified approach means you receive cohesive advice without coordinating multiple firms, backed by our 100% money-back guarantee and commitment to exceptional client service.

What is different about working with Bluebond to solve our Inheritance tax problem?

Working with Bluebond means receiving coordinated inheritance tax advice that brings legal, tax, and financial planning together in one place.

Rather than managing multiple advisers, clients receive a single, joined-up strategy with clear fixed fees. This helps ensure advice is consistent, practical, and focused on solving inheritance tax issues in a structured way.

What type of clients does Bluebond work with?

Bluebond works with individuals and families who need structured, strategic inheritance tax planning for estates typically exceeding £2 million, particularly high-net-worth families, business owners, professionals, and property investors with more complex planning requirements. We focus on comprehensive inheritance tax planning rather than standalone or transactional services, using a unified approach that brings legal, tax, and financial expertise together.

Why is Bluebond's initial advice fee so low?

Our £497 initial planning fee reflects our efficient processes and technology, not the quality of advice. We believe comprehensive inheritance tax planning should be accessible to all families who need it. We make our profit from implementation fees for those who choose to proceed, keeping initial planning affordable while maintaining exceptional standards.

What is Bluebond's 100% money back guarantee?

Bluebond’s 100% money back guarantee means the initial planning fee is refundable if you are not satisfied with the inheritance plan provided.

The guarantee applies to the initial planning stage only and is designed to give clients confidence when engaging with us, without committing to further work if the plan does not meet expectations.

Who is responsible for the implementation of any plans we choose to proceed with?

Bluebond Tax Planning provides the recommendations and guidance contained in your plan. If you choose to implement any recommendation, the relevant work is undertaken separately by the appropriate Bluebond group company or an independent specialist.

What happens after my plan is created?

After your plan is created, we provide implementation support and ongoing reviews to ensure your plan remains optimal as your circumstances and tax laws change. We offer annual review services to keep your plan current and can assist with any adjustments needed over time.

Do I need to come to your office for meetings?

No, we offer flexible meeting options including video consultations, phone calls, and in-person meetings at our offices if preferred. Our technology platform allows us to work with clients throughout the UK, providing the same high-quality service regardless of location.

How long does the planning process take?

The initial planning process typically takes 4-6 weeks from our first meeting to delivery of your comprehensive inheritance plan. This includes time for gathering information, conducting our analysis, and developing your tailored strategy. Implementation timelines vary depending on the complexity of your estate and chosen strategies.

How does Bluebond's initial IHT advice service work for new clients?

New clients begin with a no-obligation discussion to explore whether we're the right fit.

This includes detailed calculations, strategic recommendations, and a clear implementation roadmap tailored to your circumstances.

How does the fixed-fee model work?

Our comprehensive inheritance plan starts at a fixed fee of £497, with no hourly charges or hidden costs.
