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.

Rachael Stokes

Tagged solicitor Rachael Stokes

Rachael was able to present her obviously thorough understanding of the law using straightforward and clear language. She drew up my will and LPAs and whenever we communicated (whether in person, by phone or email) I received a warm welcome. I also had the sense that my thoughts and feelings were being valued, felt confident in Rachael’s professionalism and at all times understood what was happening. Excellent!

Elleanor Train

Tagged solicitor Elleanor Train

Elleanor was very professional in her approach to the entire process and shared her legal knowledge in an understandable form. I felt comfortable about asking her any questions or contacting her at any time to discuss different points. She was able to present both sides of a situation to enable me to make informed choices. This was especially the case regarding the Will making.

Abdul Mueed Kayani

Tagged solicitor Abdul Mueed Kayani

Abdul Kayani steered us through this complex and sometimes frustrating matter, professionally and speedily. The matter involved liaising with an American law firm in relation to an intestate estate in America. Not surprisingly, the matter presented Mr Kayani with novel and unusual issues, which he dealt with very competently.
