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.

Tagged solicitors Deborah Bannister and Joanna Folkes

Both Deborah Bannister and Joanna Folkes were extremely professional and helpful with my needs. Deborah is a force to be reckoned with. An amazing divorce solicitor. She got me through a very difficult and problematic time. Joanne dealt with my will. She was very informative and kept me informed every step of the way. I definitely recommend this local firm.
