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.

Rachael Stokes

Tagged solicitor Rachael Stokes

Rachael Stokes was wonderful asssiting and guiding me how to manage my mums estate after she sadly passed away last year. Rachel was kind, patient and most of all extremely knowledgeable. Being an executor of a will is so daunting, but with Rachael the process was clearly explained and her support exceptional. I am very grateful my mum had chose Rachael.

Corrine Seabourne

Tagged solicitor Corrine Seabourne

On Tuesday 10th September 2025 we had our first appointment with Corrine Seabourne after the loss of my dear siter. We needed her estate and probate sorted and we were nor disappointed as Corrine immediately gave us great confidence in her legal knowledge and 'know how'. She guided us through what we needed to do with clear and practical advice. Corrine also has a brilliant legal secretary Ella Lee, who was always on hand and kept us well informed and updated. We were so impressed with our 'A' team we insisted to the family we wanted Alsters to do the Conveyancing.

Russell Ali

Tagged solicitor Russell Ali

This was my first time as executor of an estate and was a little bit daunted going into the process, in spite of having as much documentation, I thought relevant for the case. Once the process started, I guided ery professionally and with absolute clarity from Russell from start to finish. I frequently was double checking with him when sending back various documents and emails, and it was always dealt with no fuss from Russell, and he was happy to placate my many questions with no fuss at all. All in all, it was a very good experience with the company, even though dealing with the banks on the other side of the process was often painful. Would happily recommend Russell to anybody needing his legal expertise. Very happy with the process while learning a thing or two at the same time. To be finished in 10 months I felt was aive very good outcome for me.

Amber KhindaAsh Oberoi

Tagged solicitors Amber Khinda and Ash Oberoi

Ash and Amber made the sale of our late Mum’s house a smooth, fuss‑free experience. It wasn’t the most straightforward transaction, but their prompt, practical responses - and the way they kept all parties fully informed - made the whole process far less stressful than it might have been. Ash was always at the end of the phone when needed, and was keen to talk things through rather than send lengthy emails back and forth. I have no hesitation in recommending Rose & Rose’s excellent conveyancing team.
