Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Collecting a Will, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This work covers locating and obtaining a deceased person’s valid will, or proving there is no last will, in addition to obtaining a copy if needed. A solicitor collects, checks and, if required, applies to the Probate Registry to obtain the appropriate legal authority to deal with the estate. They may liaise with executors, families, banks and other institutions to confirm where the will is kept, arrange for sworn statements, and safeguard the will’s terms for execution.

Where a solicitor protects your position

A solicitor identifies the will’s whereabouts, confirms its validity, and, where required, applies for a grant of probate or letters of administration. They ensure the document is authenticated, coordinate with the executor and beneficiaries, and handle any issues around missing or contested wills, safeguarding the estate’s orderly administration.

Maia Creed

Tagged solicitor Maia Creed

Maia was very helpful in simplifying and preparing what felt initially a fairly complex Will to sort. Maia was very focused and professional throughout our meeting, keeping the subject matter on point and was very efficient with our time spent with her.

Robyn MacNeil

Tagged solicitor Robyn MacNeil

We entrusted W&AS Bruce to prepare Wills and Powers of Attorney for both my wife and me. The whole process was handled very efficiently from start to finish, with sincere thanks to Robyn MacNeil. Additionally, we received clarification on behalf of my mum regarding her own Will and the full extent of her long standing Power of Attorney, which she had been unsure about. It was reassuring for her to know that everything was as she expected and that all documents were securely held. Legal matters can often be time consuming and complicated, but with the help of Robyn and the staff at W&AS Bruce, we felt we were treated with courtesy and respect throughout, and the whole process was far easier than we anticipated. We would happily recommend the services of Robyn and the solicitors as a whole to any prospective clients.

Meg Wilton

Tagged solicitor Meg Wilton

Meg was absolutely fantastic. Supported my sister and I throughout the inheritance tax / probate process after the death of our parents. We really appreciated her professional approach and the speed at which she completed the process. All queries were answered by return and Meg helped us through a very difficult period in our lives with her clarity and approachable manner.

Fantastic service from the team at Scullion Law. Straight from the off, the customer service from Jennifer was fantastic helping me through booking my appointment and what to expect when I arrived. On the day, i was welcomed with open arms and Scott was also very helpful too during my appointment. The family vibe at Scullion law is very evident the moment you walk through the door. Thank you for the nice experience and looking after me.
