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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Living Trusts, or inter vivos trusts, cover arrangements made during a person’s lifetime to hold assets for beneficiaries. A solicitor drafts the trust deed, advises on funding the trust with assets, and sets out the powers and duties of trustees, including who can manage the trust and when benefits are paid. They assist with ongoing administration, tax considerations, and potential implied debts or claims against the trust. If the settlor becomes unable to manage affairs, they guide succession and lifetime succession planning within the trust structure.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the technical mechanics of setting up the trust, naming trustees, funding with assets, and addressing tax implications, including inheritance tax and income tax. They also manage ongoing administration, distributions to beneficiaries, and potential changes to trust terms, ensuring compliance with the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 where applicable and with relevant reporting requirements.

Tagged solicitors Nicole Barrs and Samantha Smith

From the beginning Nicole and Sam were always there to advise me, hold my hand, and help me navigate the foreign legalities of the UK. In addition, everyone I had contact with in the office was unfailingly kind and helpful. When I have the good fortune of returning to Sunderland, I will definitely seek you out. It goes without saying that I would recommend your Firm without hesitation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Lea Maynard

Tagged solicitor Lea Maynard

Following the death of my husband, I was faced with the issues of dealing with transferring title of our jointly held French property (a very small house) into my name only and subsequently the sale of the house. I had no knowledge of the stages involved or how to approach them. These difficulties were compounded by a very unresponsive Notaire in France. Lea came to my rescue, explained the process and various stages involved and undertook the negotiations with the Notaire. It transpired to be a long process (although I now understand that it is inevitably much longer than in the UK) but Lea chased and followed up with the Notaire, resulting in a successful transfer of title and sale. This help and advice was invaluable. Always professional but kind, understanding and empathetic. Someone on whom I could rely. With my sincere thanks to Lea and to Buckles.

I found Rebecca Minns to be very helpful and professional. She clearly explained various aspects of updating my will. Changes were made and a few weeks later I was able to go into the office to have the will signed and witnessed. I was very happy with the service I received.

Amber KhindaAsh Oberoi

Tagged solicitors Amber Khinda and Ash Oberoi

Ash and Amber made the sale of our late Mum’s house a smooth, fuss‑free experience. It wasn’t the most straightforward transaction, but their prompt, practical responses - and the way they kept all parties fully informed - made the whole process far less stressful than it might have been. Ash was always at the end of the phone when needed, and was keen to talk things through rather than send lengthy emails back and forth. I have no hesitation in recommending Rose & Rose’s excellent conveyancing team.

Chris Strogen

Tagged solicitor Chris Strogen

As a former Executor, and now Trustee, I had approached Chris Strogen for legal advice and guidance to assist with a complex Trust situation. All through the process Chris helped to ensure that my approach was both legal and appropriate for the circumstances, appertaining to a convoluting Trust going back 80 years. This is the second time I have employed Chris with family law matters and he has always put me at ease. I have no hesitation in recommending Chris and Evolve Family Law Ltd.
