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.

Easy and professional service from end to end. I made contact and got an initial appointment within a few days. The engagement felt very personal to us rather than a prescribed approach you often get with larger organisations. Our wills were then prepared and signed within a week! Would recommend to all.

We have received excellent service from Dovaston Law. All our enquiries and concerns were dealt with quickly and efficiently and we were updated on events as they happened so that we were always aware of situations that we were required to attend to and that they had dealt with.. We would have every confidence in recommending them and thank them for their help and professional attitude.

I have used Spires Legal for a variety of different legal matters and they have consistently been excellent, and a pleasure to work with. This time was no different.
