    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.

    “My mother had done her will with Richard Griffiths, so naturally I turned to them, after she passed away, I was put in touch with Mr Jay Marsh-Gasson, and from the very start found him extremely helpful and knowledgeable with the probate process. My son and I had an initial meeting with Jay and he explained the whole process, I have never dealt with a death before and he explained everything in great detail, over the next 6 months he dealt with all my late mums affairs, he kept in touch all the way through the long process, I'm very grateful to jay for the work he carried out on my behalf, and now its completed ,I wanted Jay to know how grateful I am for all his help, Kindness and sympathy, at the most difficult time of my life.”
