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.

Shelley Collingbourne

Tagged solicitor Shelley Collingbourne

From the beginning of the matter, my solicitor mapped out the procedure to be adopted which varied during the process but we were always met with a positive "can do" approach. I felt that the communication and explanations of the procedure were communicated to me in a positive, timely and easily understood manner. I was very impressed throughout.

Tracy Haddock

Tagged solicitor Tracy Haddock

An easy company to deal with . I was appointed a representative (Tracy Haddock). Tracy was professional at all times . Tracy was also sympathetic during the probate process and understanding of the complexities involved. I received timely communications throughout the whole process which helped put me at ease knowing that matters were progressing . I really appreciate Tracy' help and advice in dealing with all aspects on my late mother's estate and highly recommend both Tracy and JCP Solicitors Ltd.

Elizabeth Hall

Tagged solicitor Elizabeth Hall

The task of becoming an executor whilst dealing with personal Bereavement is one of the most stressful things in life. The appointment of the right person to guide you through it is crucial. Expediency, professionalism and confidence in that person's ability that is everything. When mixed with a good helping of kindness and compassion it's a winning formula. Never having used Paul Robinson before it was a leap of faith but following completion of my late father's estate I have no hesitation in recommending Elizabeth Hall at Paul Robinson who made my personal journey so very much easier. I can't praise her highly enough.
