Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Appearance, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The outcome can determine who administers an estate, who benefits from a will or trust, and how debts are paid, with deadlines and court orders decisively shaping the result. A solicitor ensures proper steps are taken within court timescales, coordinates with executors, beneficiaries and potential rivals, and prepares or challenges applications for probate, reseals, removals, or settlements. Professional accountability and court procedure underpin every action in this area.

Hilary Coles

Tagged solicitor Hilary Coles

Hilary Coles from Maitland Walker Solicitors handled 2 inherited property sales for me. Both of which were complicated and drawn out. Hilary dealt with any and all issues in a professional manner, she always returned my calls, answered my emails, kept me updated throughout and made what could have been a very stressful time into an acceptable experience. I would thoroughly recommend Maitland Walker to anyone.

Negar provided outstanding service from start to finish. She made the entire process clear, reassuring, and incredibly professional. Her attention to detail and her ability to explain everything simply gave me complete confidence. A solicitor who genuinely goes above and beyond — highly recommended.

Abbi Hancock

Tagged solicitor Abbi Hancock

I cannot thank Abbi enough for the support and professionalism she showed while helping me deal with matters relating to my late father’s estate. This has been an incredibly emotional and difficult time for me, but Abbi handled everything with great care, patience, and understanding. Her guidance throughout the process was clear, reassuring, and highly professional. She took the time to explain things properly and was always responsive whenever I had questions or needed reassurance. Her compassion and respectful approach made a situation that felt overwhelming much easier to manage. I am truly grateful for the help and support she provided and would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone needing a knowledgeable, reliable, and empathetic legal professional.

Rachel Fisher

Tagged solicitor Rachel Fisher

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!

David and Claire were extremely helpful in administering my mother’s Grant of Probate. From our initial meeting with David, who explained the process and advised on our situation, to Claire, who responded quickly to any queries and was very efficient in finalising this matter for us. Many thanks.
