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.

Athi Law handled my sister’s estate after her death. It was an extensive and complicated affair. We were delighted with their sympathetic and efficient support.

Nick O'Sullivan

Tagged solicitor Nick O'Sullivan

When our aunt died intestate, my brother and I didn't know where to turn. After some research, we decided to go with Nick O'Sullivan, and we are so happy that we did. I was very anxious about being overseas, but Nick made the process as easy as possible and we felt like we understood what was going on at all times. He was always quick to respond when we had questions or needed anything. Nick made a difficult process at a difficult time as easy and stress-free as possible. I would highly recommend him.

Lucy McKenna

Tagged solicitor Lucy McKenna

Lucy was extremely professional and used great communication throughout my time with her working on my case. She was always ready to listen and took on board all of my decisions with great care. The service was quick and I was always informed if every step and actions taken. I can't recommend her highly enough and when would be my first port of call, if I needed her devices again. A pleasure working with her and her company through a very difficult time.
