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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Legacies covers the gifts left in a will, and the broader work of handling a person’s Will, estate and final affairs after death. A solicitor practising in this area drafts, reviews and validates Wills and codicils, identifies bequests (legacies), and helps executors collect and distribute assets in accordance with the Will. They also apply for the grant of probate or letters of administration, identify potential inheritance tax issues, and communicate with beneficiaries, creditors and the Probate Registry to wind the estate up lawfully and efficiently.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The moment a will or estate plan is made, crucial decisions and deadlines can affect rights and asset distribution. A solicitor provides protection by guiding the executor through probate, securing the right of representation, and ensuring compliance with the Inheritance Tax regime and court procedures. They help with safeguarding assets, resolving disputes between beneficiaries, and managing the orderly distribution of legacies within the time limits set by law.

Alicia NeshamDanielle Sullivan

Tagged solicitors Alicia Nesham and Danielle Sullivan

Our family circumstances were such that we had to liaise with this firm from a distance, however this was no barrier or problematic. From the outset our dealings with their staff were excellent - professional, knowledgeable, extremely helpful organised and very approachable and friendly. It was refreshing to be able to speak directly to the relevant solicitor and be kept up to date with progress. We would certainly recommend them both for estate issues and conveyancing.

Cherrie Powell

Tagged solicitor Cherrie Powell

We recently worked with Cherrie to re-write our Wills. The legal support and service from Cherrie and all the team at JPC Solicitors, in Caerphilly, was exemplary. We found Cherrie was incredibly approachable and patient with us when faced with making decisions etc. Communication channels were excellent and Cherrie would always reply to both out telephone calls and digital enquiries, quickly and diligently. We felt in safe hands with regard to her legal knowledge. We would not hesitate to recommend Cherrie as a Solicitor. We would definitely return to access her legal services.

Sarah Begley

Tagged solicitor Sarah Begley

Sarah Begley was the solicitor who helped my husband and myself sort out our dear friends will and probate. She explained in detail what the process would be and how long it would take. Sarah was able to help us with a difficult situation and dealt with the problem quickly and efficiently. Nothing was too much bother for her and she kept us informed every step of the way. I would definitely recommend Sarah Begley and Martin Tolhurst solicitors.
