Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Estate Processing, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

Where a solicitor protects your position

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.

Marie Verney

Tagged solicitor Marie Verney

Gardner Leader gave us professional support in dealing with my late sister's estate. It was complicated and highly emotional, but our solicitor guided us through with great professionalism, sensitivity and kindness. She responded promptly to every one of my emails and was completely in command of every aspect of the situation. I can't thank her enough for her help and advice during what was a very testing time.

Stephanie Wilson

Tagged solicitor Stephanie Wilson

My brother passed away unexpectedly in the UK and I travelled from Australia to farewell him, representing my two sisters also living in Australia, and sort out his affairs. I only had a week and needed help as he left no will, had a house to sort and sell, and his affairs were a bit muddled. I was fortunate to find Stephanie Wilson at Hewitts who patiently worked through things with me over the ensuing several months, settling his debts, chasing up creditors and settling sale of his house. Stephanie was always level headed, courteous and prompt in finalising the estate. I am only sorry we weren't able to carry out more of our interactions face to face but given that, Stephanie made it as straightforward and pleasant as it could be in the circumstances. I would highly recommend the firm.

Tagged solicitors Lucy Cross and Paige Hinkins

Brachers have provided a very good service. The solicitor, Paige Hinkins, has been helpful throughout the process of dealing with my aunt's estate. She has carried out the necessary actions at the right time, and responded quickly to queries. When she was on holiday, someone else has been available to continue to deal with the estate.

Robyn MacNeil

Tagged solicitor Robyn MacNeil

We entrusted W&AS Bruce to prepare Wills and Powers of Attorney for both my wife and me. The whole process was handled very efficiently from start to finish, with sincere thanks to Robyn MacNeil. Additionally, we received clarification on behalf of my mum regarding her own Will and the full extent of her long standing Power of Attorney, which she had been unsure about. It was reassuring for her to know that everything was as she expected and that all documents were securely held. Legal matters can often be time consuming and complicated, but with the help of Robyn and the staff at W&AS Bruce, we felt we were treated with courtesy and respect throughout, and the whole process was far easier than we anticipated. We would happily recommend the services of Robyn and the solicitors as a whole to any prospective clients.

Kevin Dhanda

Tagged solicitor Kevin Dhanda

I'd like to thank Kevin Dhanda of Sydney Mitchell for being absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process of a difficult year after my sisters sudden death. She died intestate and Kevin handled the whole matter from applying for Letters of Administration, capital gains queries for the Inland Revenue and sorting out the whole Estate. He was thorough, professional and reassuring at all times. Would definitely recommend him.
