Top 10 of 695 law firms for Legal Rights Claim for Children When a Parent Dies, Inheritance Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

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.
