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.

William McGarry

Tagged solicitor William McGarry

From walking into the office, there was a feeling of professionalism and approachability. All my questions were answered in a simple but knowledgeable way. The work undertaken was completed in a thorough and timely manner. After experiencing other solicitors' firms, I would place this firm head and shoulders above them in knowledge and communication styles.
