Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Death of a Loved One, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers what happens after someone dies, including dealing with the valid will, if there is one, and administering the estate. A solicitor helps identify executors, locate and interpret the will, gather assets, settle debts, pay the deceased’s taxes, and distribute assets to beneficiaries under the Probate Registry process. They may prepare and lodge probate papers, advise on trust administration, and handle claims against the estate or challenges to the will. The work can shape how much is received and who inherits what, and when the assets are released.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

A solicitor handles the complex steps of collecting the deceased’s assets, paying liabilities, applying for probate, valuing estates, and navigating potential disputes among beneficiaries. They also prepare accounts for the Probate Registry, assist with trusts, and coordinate with executors, beneficiaries, lenders, and tax authorities to ensure lawful, orderly administration.

We had an online meeting for half an hour or so. This was really helpful and informative in helping us to put our wills together. The communication from Mancini’s was really quick and efficient and we conducted the whole matter far more easily than we had anticipated!

Debra Williamson

Tagged solicitor Debra Williamson

Easy and professional service from end to end. I made contact and got an initial appointment within a few days. The engagement felt very personal to us rather than a prescribed approach you often get with larger organisations. Our wills were then prepared and signed within a week! Would recommend to all.
