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.

Both myself and my two daughters were more than happy with the professional service we received and Rebecca explained everything in plain English so we could understand what was going on.

William McGarry

Tagged solicitor William McGarry

From walking into the office, there was a feeling of professionalism and approachability. All my questions were answered in a simple but knowledgeable way. The work undertaken was completed in a thorough and timely manner. After experiencing other solicitors' firms, I would place this firm head and shoulders above them in knowledge and communication styles.
