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.
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.

I have dealt with Isabel Elliott on a few occasions with both probate and problems following my daughter’s divorce and the need for various papers. I found her very approachable and so helpful. I would also recommend her associate Emily Redlick.

Tagged solicitor Rebecca Dean
On the death of my Mother Rebecca gave excellent guidance to both me and my fellow executor. She provided step by step help/expertise throughout the application of Probate. My mum had also used Nelsons to make her Will previously. Rebecca was always very professional and pleasant to deal with. Would not hesitate to recommend Nelsons and use them again myself in the future.

Tagged solicitor Pam Dhaliwal
I was put a ease at the first meeting with Ms Pam Dhaliwal in respect of my complex financial matter. She ensured me that I was in "safe hands". I was fully kept informed at all times. All the staff were polite and understanding. I would definitely recommend Pam and the firm. I was so impressed that I continued with the firm in respect of my will and POA.
