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.
