Top 10 of 695 law firms for Direct Descendants, Inheritance Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Direct descendants covers the rights of a decedent’s issue—children, grandchildren, and further lineal descendants—in the distribution of an estate under English law, including intestacy and the drafting of wills where lineal heirs are relevant. A solicitor practicing in this niche helps identify who is entitled to a share, interprets the terms of a will or the rules of intestacy, and may assist with applying for probate or administering an estate when descendant rights are in play. The work is shaped by the structure of succession, estate debts and potential claims from other heirs.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor handles the identification of heirs under the intestacy regime, the construction of wills to reflect descendant interests, the administration of estates, and potential challenges to the distribution by other heirs. They may draft or review conveyances, provide guidance on equitable rights of descendants, manage probate applications, and liaise with executors, trustees, and the Probate Registry to ensure that assets pass to lineal heirs in accordance with law and the deceased’s wishes where applicable.

Alicia Nesham

Tagged solicitor Alicia Nesham

An initial meeting was held where we requested Mrs Nesham to produce mirrored Wills for myself and my wife. The details of the Wills were discussed in depth, guidance offered by Mrs Nesham, and agreement reached on their final content. A further meeting was held to review the wills produced, which were then signed and witnessed. We have subsequently received copies of the wills.

We would particularly like to thank Shauna Telford - specialist in trusts - for her patience, kindness, professionalism and expertise in ensuring that the desired outcomes were achieved. Many thanks.
