Disputes about wills, breaches of trust, or claims on an estate, including challenging or defending probate under the Inheritance Act 1975. A solicitor handles caveats, applications for probate or containers of administration, and court actions to resolve who benefits from an estate or to enforce or defend trust provisions. It includes advising on settlements, negotiating with executors, trustees, and potential beneficiaries, and guiding enforcement of court orders in County Courts or the High Court where needed.
The matter often involves deadlines, the enforceability of a will, and the protection of rightful beneficiaries; a solicitor helps secure or contest entitlements, navigate court procedures, and manage complex evidence about assets, debts, and lifetime gifts.

We used Winstons to sort out our late fathers life interest trust. Emily was brilliant...very efficient, organised and knowledgeable. It was a complicated issue to us but Emily dealt with it quickly and efficiently...taking away the stress for us.

Tagged solicitors Imojean Coward and Laura Rae
After months of struggling to get information from trustees of a will, I was referred to Forbes by a friend. Due to the time constraint to the contesting of the will, Forbes made sure everything was done promptly before the 6 month deadline. Laura, Imojean and Rebecca and the rest of their team were amazing in getting an agreement written up and signed off, making this a lot less stressful than having to do this by myself. I will definitely recommend Forbes should anyone need a relevant solicitor. Professional, helpful and empathetic from the beginning. Thank you again!

I have no doubts that I had the best lawyer fighting for my case.Veronica’s legal expertise is superb.She was quick in making decisions that resulted in the best possible outcome for my case.Her writing skills are also outstanding and proved to be a very effective tool when used to persuade the defendants. She answered all my queries very promptly and always provided very clear and comprehensive explanations. She also showed a great deal of empathy and was therefore able to serve me as a client at a deeper level. I would highly recommend her.

A thorough and professional service. The solicitor understood exactly what was needed and prepared a clear Deed of Variation that could be acted on by the executors. It took longer than the estimated 10 days, largely due to the unavoidable delays due to the long use of the paper post system.

Tagged solicitor Jasmin Marshall
We have recently used the Mapperley branch to sort out Grant of Probate and will also be using them for conveyancing. Jasmin Marshall who dealt with the probate was very professional but lovely at the same time. She put us at ease at what was a difficult time for us, and made the whole process much less painful. From start to finish it only took 3 weeks for probate to be granted and during that time we were kept fully informed. I can’t thank Jasmin and the team enough for what they did.

After the decision to make a will- thank goodness we went to Howells & saw Melodie. She was so lovely, efficient, professional and very mindful while dealing with a very personal delicate subject. Very happy with the easy way the wills were done & I will highly recommend this firm and the way Melodie put us at ease and answered lots of questions putting us at ease. Thank you again for a wonderful service with the added bonus of a house visit.
