This area covers claims by people who would benefit from a deceased person’s estate, typically under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975, when they believe the will or the laws of intestacy do not fairly provide for them. A solicitor handling these matters helps the claimant prepare and present a claim to the court, gather evidence of need and relationship to the deceased, and negotiate or argue about what provision should be made. The process can involve collecting financial records, valuing assets, and engaging with executors, trustees, and possibly other beneficiaries to resolve the dispute.
The key risk is that a court decides the deceased’s arrangements do not adequately provide for a dependent or certain family members, with potential significant changes to the estate. A solicitor’s role includes interpreting the Act, coordinating financial disclosure, advising on deadlines, and presenting the case to the appropriate court to secure a fair provision.

Tagged solicitor Matthew Briggs
Matt has been supporting me on a number of highly complex legal issues since the unexpected passing of my husband last year. He has tackled each issue with the utmost professionalism. He gives sound, objective advice & is very responsive, dependable, thorough and empathetic. I don't know how I would have got through the last year without Matt on my side.
