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.

David Josiah-Lake

Tagged solicitor David Josiah-Lake

From the first time that I spoke with David, he has provided me with reassurance that in a trust. This is because he delivers. He helped me get back into my house. No other solicitor would touch this. At one of my most vulnerable times in my life and where I felt out of control, David was always clear about what to do. He is proactive and I found solace. My outcome would have been very different had it not been for David.
