This area covers a child’s right to a share of a deceased parent’s estate, known in England as a legal rights claim. It involves challenging whether the parent’s will or intestacy correctly accounts for those rights and, if appropriate, recovering a portion of the estate for the child. A solicitor explains and pursues the claim, drafts the required notices, and negotiates with executors and other heirs, often guiding proceedings through the probate process and potential court disputes.

Where a solicitor protects your position

Legal rights claims protect a child’s reserved share of the estate, with deadlines that drive actions and potential consequences for how the estate is distributed. A solicitor ensures the correct calculation, flags improper distributions, registers any necessary claims, and argues for appropriate relief within the probate or court process, backed by professional accountability and client protections.
