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.

Russell Ali

Tagged solicitor Russell Ali

We needed to revise our Wills in the light of changes in the tax laws and our circumstances. We chose J & P because they were both local and seemed to have very good reviews. It was a very good choice. We used the services of Russell Ali at their Sidcup office. Our Wills involved the setting up of a Trust the details of which Russell explained to us at some length. Russell was of course very knowledgeable but also very likeable and easy to talk to. We asked lots of questions but despite it being a fixed price arrangement, at no time did we feel rushed. Within a few days we received draft Wills which were accompanied by an extremely useful side letter explaining each clause in plain English. We then raised a number of email queries which were dealt with promptly. At the end of the exercise we were very happy to sign our new Wills feeling confident we had achieved our original objectives. We would definitely use J & P, and Russell in particular, again.
