Farm Succession Planner

Answer eight questions about your farm and family, and get a personalised checklist of the legal steps involved in handing on the holding.

This planner covers the legal side of succession: title, deeds, wills, leases, partnerships, Fair Deal and powers of attorney. It does not calculate tax — Mary Molloy Solicitors are solicitors, not tax advisors, and your accountant should advise on the tax side of any transfer. Nothing here is legal advice on your specific circumstances.

1. How is the farm currently owned?

2. Is there a will in place?

3. Has a successor been identified?

4. What route is the family considering?

5. Is any land farmed or let under informal (unwritten) arrangements?

6. Are there children who will not be farming?

7. Is nursing home care / the Fair Deal Scheme a concern for the older generation?

8. Are Enduring Powers of Attorney in place for the current owners?
