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.

Abdul Mueed Kayani

Tagged solicitor Abdul Mueed Kayani

Abdul Kayani steered us through this complex and sometimes frustrating matter, professionally and speedily. The matter involved liaising with an American law firm in relation to an intestate estate in America. Not surprisingly, the matter presented Mr Kayani with novel and unusual issues, which he dealt with very competently.

Nadia Faki

Tagged solicitor Nadia Faki

My father was a lawyer, and i am aware of what makes a great lawyer. My family got extremely lucky when we recently hired Nelsons to handle our aunt's estate. Especially since Nadia Faki has been the lawyer we have had the great fortune of dealing with. She has been very professional, does everything when and how she said she will do it....and quite frankly, she made handling the estate a very easy procedure, which is saying something, considering we all live in a different country. (Canada) In short, she is a great lawyer. As you can tell i am very happy with Nelsons and especially Nadia Faki. If anyone has any questions about my experience, feel free to email me at guyrandall@hotmail.com I

Amber KhindaAsh Oberoi

Tagged solicitors Amber Khinda and Ash Oberoi

Ash and Amber made the sale of our late Mum’s house a smooth, fuss‑free experience. It wasn’t the most straightforward transaction, but their prompt, practical responses - and the way they kept all parties fully informed - made the whole process far less stressful than it might have been. Ash was always at the end of the phone when needed, and was keen to talk things through rather than send lengthy emails back and forth. I have no hesitation in recommending Rose & Rose’s excellent conveyancing team.

This is the second time we have used Clark willis to update our wills. This time we were taking advantage of a free wills scheme offered by one of the charities we support.To be honest I wasn't expecting the premium service we got first time round as there was no profit involved for the firm, how wrong was i.From our first meeting with a young lady called Negar through to the signing of the wills the service was excellent every detail explained every option explored, definitely a five star experience So thanks to all concerned especially NEGAR for all your help and advice.

Abbi Hancock

Tagged solicitor Abbi Hancock

I cannot thank Abbi enough for the support and professionalism she showed while helping me deal with matters relating to my late father’s estate. This has been an incredibly emotional and difficult time for me, but Abbi handled everything with great care, patience, and understanding. Her guidance throughout the process was clear, reassuring, and highly professional. She took the time to explain things properly and was always responsive whenever I had questions or needed reassurance. Her compassion and respectful approach made a situation that felt overwhelming much easier to manage. I am truly grateful for the help and support she provided and would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone needing a knowledgeable, reliable, and empathetic legal professional.
