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.

Leah Waller

Tagged solicitor Leah Waller

I recently worked with Leah to draft my Will, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, she explained every step in clear, understandable terms. Leah was incredibly patient, answering all my questions and addressing my concerns with kindness and professionalism. Her expertise and dedication made a potentially stressful process smooth and manageable. I highly recommend Leah—she's an absolute asset to the law firm.

Hilary Coles

Tagged solicitor Hilary Coles

Hilary Coles from Maitland Walker Solicitors handled 2 inherited property sales for me. Both of which were complicated and drawn out. Hilary dealt with any and all issues in a professional manner, she always returned my calls, answered my emails, kept me updated throughout and made what could have been a very stressful time into an acceptable experience. I would thoroughly recommend Maitland Walker to anyone.
