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.

Reshma Amin

Tagged solicitor Reshma Amin

Reshma provided a professional service helping to organize a will for an elderly person whose first language was Gujarati. Transparent with the costs, helped make amendments and arranged for the will to be signed and witnessed at their local offices. Parking was available and with offices on the ground floor, there were no issues with access for someone elderly and with mobility issues. Throughout the process, Reshma was professional, polite and made an effort to ensure that the will could be completed with the minimum of fuss. Finding legal professionals with the ability to converse in Gujarati (south of the river) proved to be more difficult than expected and fortunately Reshma was able to step in ensuring her client's wishes were met and understood perfectly. Would highly recommend this law firm and grateful for Reshma's assistance
