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.
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.

Tagged solicitor Ashlie Harwood
I found Ashlie very helpful and professional when writing my Will. Any questions I had were always answered immediately and the process was explained in detail but in the way I could understand. I cannot recommend Ashlie Harwood highly enough for this service.

Tagged solicitor Louise Harris
When I needed some legal advice I reached out to Louise Harris at Baldwin and Robinson. Louise was very informative and honest with me and gave great advice. Even though her organisation could not help me with my situation she took the time to give me contact details of other solicitors that could help me.

Tagged solicitors Emma Gadsden and Natasha Oglethorpe
This firm of solicitors have been our family solicitors for very many years now. We have stayed with them because they are extremely professional, knowledgeable, experienced and helpful. They have been wonderfully supportive and empathetic whilst dealing with my late husband's estate for probate and subsequent Estate Account production. Nothing has been too much trouble for them and they were very kind, patient and considerate during a distressing time for me. They have been attentive and understanding in all aspects of the family situation and also in producing an updated Will for me. Emma, Natasha and Karen have also been instrumental in setting up and registering LPAs for me.
