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.

In this awful impersonal online world, the traditional service from Bates Wells & Braithwaite which we received , could not have been bettered. Would thoroughly recommend this firm at Sudbury.

I have used NM Legal for updating my will and POA. No issues, all staff are knowledgable and friendly. Had previous experience of another law firm who did not have that experience and everything took multiple phone calls. I would thoroughly recommend NM Legal to anyone in need of services they provide. Staff friendly, nothing too much bother and most of all confident and know exactly what they are doing. Knowledge and service exceptional.
