Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Advising Executors, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Where a person dies leaving a will, solicitors advise executors on gathering the estate, paying debts and legacies, and applying for the grant of probate. They draft and check the estate accounts, liaise with HM Revenue & Customs and the Probate Registry, identify beneficiaries, and handle claims against the estate. They also navigate deadlines, fiduciary duties and, where relevant, disputes, ensuring assets are distributed in accordance with the will and the law.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The grant of probate is a decisive, time‑sensitive step. A solicitor helps the executor meet the legal duties, prepare and submit the necessary papers, address Inheritance Tax and other liabilities, and keep detailed, auditable records to protect the executor from personal liability if a mistake occurs.

Alex GibbonsKIP

Tagged solicitors Alex Gibbons and KIP

On both appointments we were made welcome and at ease. During those appointments we were treated in a friendly manner and developed a confidence in the procedures. Explanations were not requested as there were no complications and all topics clear. Any we were not sure about before the appointment were cleared up without our having us to speak of them. Friendly and to the point at all times. we went in unsure of the procedures but came out confident that all was well.

Sophie Ellis

Tagged solicitor Sophie Ellis

What a team! Between Sophie and Jaeda, not only was my parents house sold, but probate sorted in a caring and highly professional manner. I cannot recommend Beswicks Legal enough: at an incredibly difficult time, they demonstrated empathy whilst advising my family. I would not hesitate to recommend this firm of solicitors.

We had an online meeting for half an hour or so. This was really helpful and informative in helping us to put our wills together. The communication from Mancini’s was really quick and efficient and we conducted the whole matter far more easily than we had anticipated!
