Annie Smiling Sitting At Desk

About

Hello, I’m Annie and I am the founder and principal of our Estate Planning practice at Inspired Futures Estate Planning.

I’ve spent many years working exclusively in Wills and Estate Planning, supporting individuals and families in putting clear, thoughtful and legally robust plans in place for the future. My work is rooted in one core principle: people deserve clarity, compassion and confidence when making decisions that affect those they love most.

My professional background is firmly grounded in estate planning. Having been a financial adviser for over 30 years (now retired), I decided to fully concentrate on Estate Planning and successfully completed the STEP Advanced Certificate in Will Preparation. I continue to place a strong emphasis on technical accuracy, best practice and ongoing professional development. This ensures that every Will and Estate Plan we prepare is not only personal, but also compliant, carefully structured and fit for purpose.

What Truly Sets Us Apart Is The Way We Work With Clients

Alongside my technical expertise, I bring a very practical understanding of real family situations. Much of my work involves advising on complex family arrangements, blended families, trusts, inheritance tax planning and later-life planning. I take the time to fully understand each client’s circumstances so that the advice given is relevant, proportionate and tailored and never generic.

What truly sets our practice apart is the way we work with clients. Estate planning can feel daunting, emotional or even overwhelming. My role is to guide you through the process calmly and patiently, explaining your options in clear, straightforward language and giving you the time and space you need to make informed decisions.

Many of our clients come to us through personal recommendation, which we consider the greatest compliment. We are proud to build long-term relationships based on trust, transparency and professional care.
