This area covers how an estate is handled after someone dies, including who inherits under a will or the rules of intestacy, and how the estate is administered by executors or administrators. A solicitor practising in State Succession helps with applying for probate or a letter of administration, collecting assets, paying liabilities, disposing of property, and distributing assets to beneficiaries, while navigating taxes, trusts, and any disputes. It may also involve planning to minimise future liabilities and addressing challenges to a will.
The solicitor handles the probate or administration process, identifies beneficiaries, obtains the grant of representation, collects assets, pays liabilities and legacies, files relevant tax returns, manages inheritances through trusts where relevant, and resolves disputes among potential heirs or against the will. They liaise with executors, trustees, beneficiaries, tax authorities, and financial institutions, and ensure compliance with applicable law and court procedures.

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.

Tagged solicitor Hannah Goodeve
I contacted Parker Bullen when they offered a free consultation for volunteers and clients of Romsey Cancer Support Centre (Jane Scarth House). My husband had died and I had to write a new Will and Lasting Powers of Attorney, which was difficult for me but had to done. Hannah Goodeve understood my needs and helped me through the whole process. She was friendly, professional, efficient and kind. It was useful having face-to-face meeting. I have had dealing with six solicitors over the past 16 years to settle estates of relatives. I wish I known of Parker Bullen for my husband’s estate. Two of the six solicitors, I would not recommend to anyone. However, I would have no hesitation in recommending Parker Bullen, especially to those in my situation.
