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.

Matthew Briggs

Tagged solicitor Matthew Briggs

I have dealt with Matthew for a number of years in his capacity as looking after my parents estate and planning their inheritance. Unfortunately last year I worked more closely with him due to the passing of my mother. The LPA process for my father who has Alzheimer’s was seamless and his advice and support in dealing with both my mother’s will and ensuring my father is protected due to his current capacity has been exceptional. His support for us as a family, the empathy he has shown and the way he has helped and communicated with us have been first class. I look forward to continuing to work with him.

Sophie Ellis

Tagged solicitor Sophie Ellis

Fabulous service from Sophie Ellis and her team. At a sensitive and emotional time, the sale of my family home was dealt with professionally and efficiently. I would highly recommend Beswicks for conveyancing. I would also recommend Beswicks for matters around probate and wills, we dealt with Chloe Robinson and again the service was professional, sympathetic and efficient. Highly recommended.

I needed their professional help once again after the death of my husband and once again they were there with their guidance and advice. I would definitely recommend them, and have done to my friends and family,
