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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Bereavement services in England cover administering an deceased person’s estate, including obtaining a grant of probate or letters of administration, collecting assets, settling debts, and distributing the remainder to beneficiaries. A solicitor drafts and submits the application for probate, inventories assets, communicates with banks and other institutions, and negotiates any Inheritance Tax issues, acting for executors or beneficiaries as appropriate. The work may also involve advising on trusts, lifetime gifts and post-death registrations.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The process hinges on time-sensitive steps such as applying for probate, appraising the estate, and settling tax liabilities; delays can affect beneficiaries and incur penalties. A solicitor protects your position by ensuring properly executed filings, safeguarding asset transfers, and maintaining clear records to support distributions and potential disputes.

Debra Hepplestall

Tagged solicitor Debra Hepplestall

Acting as Powers of Attorney, we engaged Easthams to do the conveyancing on our father's property. Sadly our Dad passed away, meaning the sale could not progress until Probate was granted. Our solicitor remained personable and sensitive to the situation, whilst continuing to update our buyers solicitor and estate agent. On receipt of Probate, our solicitor acted swiftly ensuring all Executors were appraised of progress and remained contactable should there have been any queries. A professional service with a personal touch.

I have been dealing with Jane Stenning for the last 11 months, since the death of my stepmother. Jane made a very stressful process as easy as it possibly could be. Can’t thank or recommend her enough.

I was very impressed with the professional and efficiency I received from Ellie Colbourne starting from my initial telephone call enquiry about amending my Will through to the final meeting to sign my amended Will. I would certainly recommend Howard & Over to someone else.

I consider myself privileged to have been under the guidance and care of Aneesa Kaskar. Aneesa has such warmth, compassion and empathy of which was apparent from our very first conversation and so reassuring when you are dealing with probate after losing a loved one. Aneesa is gentle, kind, extremely professional and efficient and very patient. Julie is also lovely and was so supportive and generous with her time. Thank you both so much, I seriously could not have managed without you! I highly recommend the services provided by Aneesa.
