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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers death-related matters under English law, including probate, administration of estates, and the distribution of assets after someone dies. A solicitor in this field advises executors and administrators, prepares and submits grant applications for probate or letters of administration, gathers and values the deceased’s assets, pays debts and taxes, and oversees the transfer of property to beneficiaries. They also help with intestacy planning, catch-up for tax liabilities, and dealing with banks, government bodies, and insurers on behalf of the estate.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The solicitor’s role concentrates on securing the estate by applying for the correct grant (probate or administration), identifying heirs, and ensuring timely payment of liabilities, debts and taxes. They ensure proper distribution of assets under the will or intestacy rules, and manage key steps such as asset realisation, safeguarding bank accounts and title to property, and coordinating with executors, trustees or beneficiaries as required.

Ann Farnill

Tagged solicitor Ann Farnill

I could not find the documentation pertaining to me power of attorney and the person who originally drew it up was uncontactable. Ann Farnill took on the case and also chased up my funeral plan, advised me to update my will and retrieved the Power of Attorney documentation. I have hearing difficulties and Ann made sure that I had understood everything and put it all in writing for me. I would highly recommend Rotheras Solicitors.

Faraz Manzur

Tagged solicitor Faraz Manzur

We were very impressed with the whole setup of Sweeney Miller and especially with Faraz who was friendly and professional also. The costs were discussed before the process started and didn't change throughout. The process of making the will was explained from the start and was straightforward. In the final meeting, Faraz explained the will point by point and we were in no doubt about matters.

Luke Williams

Tagged solicitor Luke Williams

From the very first telephone conversation, I felt at east and confident that my Lasting Power of Attorney would be handled in a professional and timely manner. Both Luke and Rhys were very approachable and patient. Fees were 50% lower than every other Solicitor I contacted.
