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.

Michael Brierley

Tagged solicitor Michael Brierley

I honestly cannot recommend Michael highly enough. The professional and empathetic support he provided, made the most difficult time of my life, more bearable. I enlisted Michael's help when my partner died without a will. We owned a house together, and, as you would expect, our lives were inextricably linked. I did not know where I stood or what would happen, which felt very scary at a time when my world had already been turned upside down. Michael takes a holistic approach to his cases, expertly advising on the legalities but also taking account of the emotions of the situation. After our first meeting, I immediately felt more informed on the situation and also reassured that whatever was going to happen I would have Michael in my corner to help. His communication was excellent throughout and very proactive. In the end, everything was resolved amicably but the peace of mind it gave me knowing I had Michael to help was invaluable to me. I honestly don't know how I would have coped without his advice and support. Thankyou Michael

Matthew Briggs

Tagged solicitor Matthew Briggs

Matt has been supporting me on a number of highly complex legal issues since the unexpected passing of my husband last year. He has tackled each issue with the utmost professionalism. He gives sound, objective advice & is very responsive, dependable, thorough and empathetic. I don't know how I would have got through the last year without Matt on my side.

Julie Granger

Tagged solicitor Julie Granger

Kingfords dealt with my late wife's probate and also writing a new will for myself. Everything went smoothly with face to face meetings, telephone consultations and draft documents via email. I highly recommend Kingsfords and especially Julie Granger who dealt with my new Will. Also the secretaries were very helpful.

Emma was absolutely brilliant support for us when we lost our mum and had to sort out her estate and probate. She helped us through each step professionally but also with understanding and empathy. A fantastic service.
