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.

Peter Martin

Tagged solicitor Peter Martin

I obtained a second opinion from Peter Martin on several matters where my existing solicitor had been failing in both service and explanation of the status with my divorce case, and a brief review of the way forward for applying for probate in respect of my late mothers estate . I found Peter to be extremely knowledgeable and straight to the point. The advice given has probably saved me further expense and valuable time, and has clarified my position in respect of a formal complaint against my divorce case solicitor. I would be pleased to recommend him.

I met with Jonathan MacNamara to discuss the dissolution of a family trust which had been arranged through an unrelated firm of solicitors. Jonathan handled all aspects of the work and produced a very satisfactory outcome. At all times, he was friendly, efficient and professional.

Having to sell our family home after our mother passed away Capa Law was recommended by our estate agent. The service, advice and guidance was excellent. Communication was great throughout the process and although it took a while the sale went though with no issues on either party’s side. Thanks Jessie & Julie
