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 key decision is securing the correct grant of representation and completing any tax clearance requirements. A solicitor ensures deadlines are met, identifies liabilities and beneficiaries, and coordinates the collection and distribution of assets according to the will or the intestacy rules, while safeguarding the executor or administrator’s position through regulatory rules and proper accounting.

From our initial meeting, we felt confident that the team were professional and very knowledgable about each stage of the work. We were kepy fully informed and the line of communication was excellent, via letter, email and telephone. Our questions were answered clearly and quickly, in a friendly manner. We would have no hesitation recommending Hay & Kilner.
