Deed of variation

This infographic uses a royal blue background with white text and outlines how a deed of variation can be used to change inheritance after death. It explains the definition of a deed of variation, lists actions it may allow—such as redirecting inheritance, reducing Inheritance Tax, and supporting family members not included in the Will—and highlights what it cannot do, including altering the original Will, changing executors or guardians, or varying the same asset more than once. It also summarises key legal rules, including the two-year deadline and the restriction on receiving payment for making a variation. The bottom section explains how Trueman Brown can assist, with contact details included. The layout uses icons, headings, and clear section dividers for readability.
