Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Advising on the Creation and Administration of Lifetime Trusts and Those Arising on Death, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This work covers the creation and ongoing administration of lifetime trusts and the trusts that arise when someone dies, including handling the transfer of assets into a trust, drafting the trust deed, managing trustees, and administering the estate or trust in line with the terms set out by the settlor or the will. A solicitor in this area drafts and reviews trust documents, advises on tax and funding of the trust, liaises with executors and beneficiaries, and, on death, oversees probate matters and the distribution of assets according to the trust or will. The work is shaped by the terms of the trust or will, UK tax rules, and the responsibilities of trustees and executors.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The solicitor ensures that the trust is valid and properly funded, that trustees understand and follow the trust terms, and that distributions and reporting are carried out in accordance with applicable law and the trust document. They provide guidance on tax issues (including inheritance tax and ongoing income tax), safeguard the interests of beneficiaries, maintain proper accounts, and handle any disputes or changes in trusteeship, all within regulatory and fiduciary standards designed to protect the client’s position and the integrity of the trust.

Really appreciated the support and guidance from Rachel, not just able to provide honest and clear guidance but was really just able to listen when I think that was what I needed the most. My concerns were treated compassionately and with empathy whilst giving me the direction I needed to move forward and I feel that I am back in control now. Thank you, cannot recommend highly enough!

From start to finish Morgans have been top class. From the valuer, the sales team to Kirsten in Conveyancing. Now dealing with Sam in the winding up of our mums estate which is a difficult time for us as a family however Sam is very compassionate and nothing is too much when asking questions. Morgans as a whole have been great and would highly recommend all departments.

Amy Douch

Tagged solicitor Amy Douch

After a serious fall where I realised my mother would need some care for the foreseeable future, I took a look at documents relating to a Family Trust both my parents set up a number of years prior. After making some further enquiries, I was shocked to find that that McClures the solicitors they had used to create this Trust had gone into administration some years prior. Not knowing how my mother stood legally ( sadly dad no longer with us), I began to complete some research and came across Amy Douch at Nash& Co,who had clearly helped another client in the same position some time earlier. Having contacted Amy and after discussing our predicament, she emailed me a clear outline of what needed doing and the associated costs. She also kindly guided us to what parts of the process we might complete ourselves to minimise costs. We are now nearing the end of the process. I have had my faith restored in solicitors. Amy has answered all of our questions promptly, kept us fully informed as the process took place, and has completed the task promptly and professionally. I would certainly use Amy again and recommend her to anyone who finds themself in this ghastly predicament. Thank you Amy!
