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.

Another great service from N Legal who have just dealt with my probate and late mothers estate, the process was completely stress free, very fast and effectively efficient especially during these difficult times. I have been using the services of N Legal Solicitors for nearly two decades. First when I was a Sales Negotiator at a local estate agency, and since then, I have turned to their expertise multiple times for both buying and selling properties. Their service is consistently professional, communication is outstanding, and their attention to detail is exceptional. Kim and the team have always made me feel secure and supported throughout the entire process. Legal matters can be incredibly time-consuming and often confusing. Kim demonstrates both deep expertise and a confident ability to handle cases across various areas of law. I wholeheartedly recommend N Legal to anyone in need of legal advice.

Kristel Wan

Tagged solicitor Kristel Wan

Kristel was great - really efficient, replied promptly to our queries. However, before she was allocated our paralegal was often quite slow to respond and it felt like we were chasing him. Some simple things were missed and then panicked asked for towards the end - for example, we were selling the house as Executors and the certificate of probate and death certificate were not requested until weeks before the sale.
