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.

Rachael Scowcroft

Tagged solicitor Rachael Scowcroft

I have met Rachael on a few occasions as she has completed various legal work for myself and members of my family. I have found Rachael to be extremely professional, kind, thoughtful and just a truly genuine person. Rachael has shown nothing but kindness and compassion to myself and my family in some difficult circumstances. Rachael went above and beyond what I could ever of expected and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
