Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Practical Guide to Bereavement, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Bereavement practicalities in England cover the steps after a death to deal with the deceased’s estate, including applying for a grant of probate or letters of administration, locating and valuing assets, paying debts and handling Inheritance Tax where due, and distributing what remains to beneficiaries under the will or the intestacy rules. A solicitor helps prepare and submit the correct forms, advises on tax positions, engages with banks and assets held in estates, and represents the client in matters relating to estate administration and probate proceedings in the courts. The process is shaped by the Probate Registry, the Inheritance Tax regime, and the obligations of executors or administrators to gather assets, settle liabilities, and distribute estate assets lawfully and efficiently.

Tagged solicitor Andrea Ashton

Throughout the process I have felt a huge burden has been lifted with a reassuring 'Don't worry - we'll deal with that' from the outset. I appreciate the combination of approachability and professionalism , across the whole of the office staff, and appropriate levels of communication which keep me informed of the progress to date, and next steps to be undertaken. I have been neither 'left in the dark' or bombarded with information at any point. I look forward to completing this matter in due course and having used this office previously and now, would not hesitate to do so again.

Bethany provided a very professional, outstanding value for money and an efficicient service from start to finish. Bethany is a very down to earth and approachable person, who genuinely has her clients best interests at heart. She takes time out to get to know her clients while providing a professional service. I've never felt rushed at any meetings in person or over the phone. I would highly recommed Bethany who also shows compassion and will definitely use her services again.
