married/civil partnerships & cohabiting

When it comes to your finances married and civil partnership couples enjoy greater pension and inheritance benefits than single or cohabiting couples. If you are a cohabiting couple and not married or in a civil partnership, you are not entitled to the same rights particularly when it comes to property and inheritance.

To get a better understanding of your financial status and how to protect your future and that of your partner give us a call to arrange a financial review and consult.

We can help. Our service is tailored to your specific needs so you can plan for the future, safe in the knowledge that you and your family will be looked after.

 

Financial Tips for Soon to be Parents

Saving for your Child’s Education

When it comes to your child’s education you need to ensure you have enough to support them from primary school through to their college years. Each year parents underestimate the cost of sending their children back to school or college.

 

Prefund your children’s education costs – make the best use of the Children’s allowance.

 

O’Leary Financial Planning has a range of saving & investment options to suit your particular needs from as little as €100 per month.

How are you saving for your child's future

separation & divorce

A change in your relationship status can be devastating. We can help you through the financial implications of a separation or divorce with discretion, compassion and understanding.

At times of deep emotional anxiety, a financial adviser can explain what will happen with regard to your finances, your pension, investments and assets. We can advise you on your financial position and help implement a plan to get you back on track.

Bereavement

Dealing with the loss of a loved one can be the most difficult time in anyone’s life and one of the most challenging aspects of grief is having to deal with the practicalities of money. Knowing where to go from here and what to do next can be daunting.

At O’Leary Financial Planning, we can help you to understand your financial situation, discuss which investment options are available to you and explain how you can make your financial resources last while you come to terms with the next chapter of your life.

Estate & Tax Planning

Leaving assets to someone other than a spouse or civil partner could mean that they are liable for 33% inheritance tax if the sum is in excess of the threshold. Tax is levied on the total net value of all assets received and includes the family home, investment properties, cash, life assurance benefits as well as house contents, etc. However, there are measures that can help reduce the tax burden especially when it comes to estate planning.

At O’Leary Financial Planning we can help make sure the real value of your assets is not reduced by inheritance or gift tax. Our financial advisors can help minimise your CAT liability maximising the amount passing onto the next generation.
