Inheritance rights cover what happens to a person’s estate when they die, including wills, intestacy, executors and probate. A solicitor in this area drafts or contests wills, applies for probate, administers estates, and resolves claims by or against executors, beneficiaries and creditors. They also advise on claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act and help gather assets, pay liabilities and distribute the estate according to the law and the deceased’s wishes.
This work involves handling estates, interpreting wills and intestacy rules, locating executors, and navigating probate applications, estate administration and potential disputes among beneficiaries. It requires knowledge of the Probate Registry procedures, estate tax considerations, and, where relevant, claims under specific legacy or dependants legislation to protect a client’s position.
