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.

Mark Feely

Tagged solicitor Mark Feely

My sister and I needed to sell our parents home following them having to move into a care home, and chose Mark Feely was very highly recommended by a family member. We had a difficult journey with buyers and buyers solicitors. Mark was amazing and dealt with everything, and rather than playing pass the email back and forth, he talked to people and resolved the endless issues as they arose. He took time to ask as to how our parents were doing and could not have been more kind and supportive to us at this very difficult time. We wish we could give more than five stars.

Chaanah Patton

Tagged solicitor Chaanah Patton

We first used the conveyancing department of Taylor Emmet over 20 years ago when buying our property, and were then introduced to Chaanah Patton for making our wills. Ten years later she advised us in matters relating to trusts and powers of Attorney, and most recently for the updating of our Lasting Powers of Attorney. We have always found her friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and utterly professional and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
