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.

Pamela Horobin

Tagged solicitor Pamela Horobin

Having routinely fallen out with various relatives and buried several others, I felt it was time to update my 2023 Will to avoid any posthumous confusion or dispute. As a wise cynic once remarked: "Where there's a Will, there's a Relative!" Progression Solicitors, in the delightful small town of Ulverston ( Cumbria) , were recommended to me and within a couple of weeks the whole procedure has been painlessly completed by Hannah Booth and her extremely helpful and efficient assistant, Saaima. I found all the Staff at Progression to be very friendly and approachable. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone seeking legal advice or assistance in our increasingly litigious, complex and bureaucratic society . My sincere thanks to all involved.
