Estate processing covers administering a deceased person’s affairs after death, including obtaining a grant of representation, collecting assets, paying debts and liabilities, and distributing the remaining assets to beneficiaries. A solicitor in this area may prepare and lodge probate or letters of administration, value and transfer assets, deal with banks, HMRC for any inheritance tax or income tax issues, and resolve claims from creditors or beneficiaries. The work is shaped by the size and complexity of the estate and any lifetime gifts or trusts involved.

“The Elliott Mather Team, lead in my case by Rebecca Hudson, made the tricky and daunting process of probate, so very easy! Rebecca's professionalism was extemporary. Her lines of communications, with her colleagues, the probate services and myself, were perfect. The quote was well explained and reasonable and the end cost was as expected. Rebecca and her team went above and beyond ... thank you !! ”

“My wife and I are in our 90s and needed to make final wills and appoint Powers of Attorney - quite overwhelming tasks at our age involving several visits to our home and much paperwork. This was done by Amy in a friendly but professional way and after many months waiting for the Office of the Public Guardian to approve and register the documents all is now in place. All very much very much appreciated.”

“Really appreciated the support and guidance from Rachel, not just able to provide honest and clear guidance but was really just able to listen when I think that was what I needed the most. My concerns were treated compassionately and with empathy whilst giving me the direction I needed to move forward and I feel that I am back in control now. Thank you, cannot recommend highly enough!”

“On both appointments we were made welcome and at ease. During those appointments we were treated in a friendly manner and developed a confidence in the procedures. Explanations were not requested as there were no complications and all topics clear. Any we were not sure about before the appointment were cleared up without our having us to speak of them. Friendly and to the point at all times. we went in unsure of the procedures but came out confident that all was well.”
