    Appearance in wills, trusts and probate work covers the act of attending court or a tribunal on probate matters, such as applying for grants of representation, contesting a will, or resolving disputes about trusts or executries. A solicitor in this area represents the client at hearings, negotiates disputes, and handles submissions, evidence, and witness examination to progress the case. These proceedings may involve the Probate Registry, the High Court, or county courts, depending on the nature and value of the claim.
