How we can help



If you have been appointed as an Executor under a Will, or you are next of kin to someone who has died without them having a Will (known as intestate), our probate solicitors are here to provide you with the support and guidance you need. Our dedicated team of experts deal with all Probate matters, regardless of complexity.

We can assist with the following:

• Provide advice on the formal documents you need for probate, such as the Will (if there is one), the death certificate and inheritance tax forms.

• Obtain a Grant of Representation – either a Grant of Probate (if there is a Will) or Letters of Administration (if there is no Will).

• Handle the legal aspects of transferring and selling the deceased’s property and belongings and paying off any debts and/or taxes due as a result of the death.

• Help you track down and contact Beneficiaries (the people entitled to inherit)

• Handle Inheritance Tax and filing the tax return with HMRC

• Distribute inheritance to the Beneficiaries and varying estates to divert inheritance to other beneficiaries
