Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Probate Instructions, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Probate Instructions covers arranging and guiding the process of applying for a grant of probate after a death, and administering the estate in England. A solicitor in this area drafts or reviews the probate papers, helps identify the executor(s), collects and values assets, settles Inheritance Tax and other liabilities, contacts banks and beneficiaries, and registers the grant with the Probate Registry. They also provide practical steps for dealing with estate assets, debts and distribution in line with the deceased’s will or the rules of intestacy.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The process hinges on time-sensitive steps such as notifying HMRC, obtaining the Grant of Probate, and distributing assets. A solicitor ensures the correct forms are completed, handles any challenges or disputes, and coordinates with executors and beneficiaries to protect the estate from missteps, delays, or misdelivery of funds.

Alan Horne

Tagged solicitor Alan Horne

We just wanted to express our appreciation for the Will and Power of Attorney services provided by Kidwells Solicitors. What we all thought would be a reasonably straight forward process became significantly more complicated when our elderly relative suddenly found themselves hospitalised. This, coupled with a further complication could have been very stressful for our relative but these complications were professionally managed by our solicitor Alan Horne, who offered considered and easily understood guidance to our family. Alan ensured that all of the arrangements necessary to complete the work with a hospital confined client were carried out with ease. He kept us fully informed as to what was happening, a consideration he also extended to the hospital staff who were able to continue their duties without any disruption. We would have no hesitation in recommending Kidwells or Alan Horne to future clients.

1st class service from initial booking of appointment to completion. My solicitor was empathetic and professional and broke down complex "legal jargon" into plain understandable English. She handled my case in an unhurried & friendly calm manner.
