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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This work covers estates where debts exceed assets and there is not enough to pay all creditors. A solicitor helps identify assets, notify creditors, apply for probate or letters of administration, and realise assets to settle debts in the correct order. They draft and file the necessary forms, communicate with executors and beneficiaries, and liaise with insolvency practitioners or the probate registry when needed. The aim is to achieve a lawful distribution of what remains, within a formal insolvency framework.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Insolvent estates involve tracing assets, paying preferential claims, and calculating how much can be distributed to creditors or beneficiaries. The solicitor handles reporting to the court, coordinating with the Insolvency Service or official receivers where applicable, and navigating any creditor challenges, misfeasance concerns, or tax matters that affect the distribution.

David and Claire were extremely helpful in administering my mother’s Grant of Probate. From our initial meeting with David, who explained the process and advised on our situation, to Claire, who responded quickly to any queries and was very efficient in finalising this matter for us. Many thanks.

I recently dealt with Tasnim Khalid on a complex probate matter. Tasnim quickly grasped the issues in hand and provided a clear explanation as to the work that was required and the course of action to be followed. I found her to be knowledgeable and efficient and she kept me fully updated at every stage of the matter. I also found her advice to be practical and easy to understand whilst also recognising the cost and commercial implications. Her expertise was evidenced in the successful outcome that we achieved and I could not fault the advice and service provided.

I was very impressed with the professional and efficiency I received from Ellie Colbourne starting from my initial telephone call enquiry about amending my Will through to the final meeting to sign my amended Will. I would certainly recommend Howard & Over to someone else.
