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.

Timely and professional. It couldn't have been handled better despite the death of my mother just before scheduled completion and the requirement to put everything on hold pending probate

BWK solicitors were so great. We used them for probate services and they also dealt with the sale of out mums house. So professional and communicative. I thoroughly recommend them.

I have been dealing with Jane Stenning for the last 11 months, since the death of my stepmother. Jane made a very stressful process as easy as it possibly could be. Can’t thank or recommend her enough.

I was very impressed with the professional and efficiency I received from Ellie Colbourne starting from my initial telephone call enquiry about amending my Will through to the final meeting to sign my amended Will. I would certainly recommend Howard & Over to someone else.
