This area covers the estate of a person who has died, including applying for probate or letters of administration, dealing with assets and debts, and distributing the estate where there is or may be an intestacy. A solicitor in this field drafts and lodges probate applications, inventories assets, negotiates with banks and HMRC, settles tax liabilities, collects assets, pays debts and legacies, and prepares estate accounts for beneficiaries or executors. It can involve challenging or complex issues such as disputed wills, missing beneficiaries, or claims under life policies and trusts.

Anne and Josephine dealt with my late mother's estate. They were efficient, communication was good and value for money. I would use Curwens again.

It is a very difficult time when you lose a close family member and made worse when there are complexities in the will and inheritance. The team from SME could not have been more efficient, helpful and sensitive in dealing with it all. Our thanks to Amanda Piper for all her help.

Leah Waller

Tagged solicitor Leah Waller

I recently worked with Leah to draft my Will, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, she explained every step in clear, understandable terms. Leah was incredibly patient, answering all my questions and addressing my concerns with kindness and professionalism. Her expertise and dedication made a potentially stressful process smooth and manageable. I highly recommend Leah—she's an absolute asset to the law firm.

Adam FlemingJessica Dawkins

Tagged solicitors Adam Fleming and Jessica Dawkins

I am very impressed with the prompt, professional and understanding way both Adam & Jessica handled the situation. Whilst grieving the loss of my father, having the eldest of us as three sisters refuse to sign probate or communicate in anyway, was enormously stressful and emotional. Adam & Hess calm approach and clear advice, followed up with letters resolved the situation within a few weeks. Their knowledge and experience of these more frequently occurring situations is brilliant.

Joanna Longfellow

Tagged solicitor Joanna Longfellow

I recently went to JWP regarding a complex matter regarding wills and probate. I was lucky enough to be assigned a complimentary call with Joanna Longfellow. Within minutes I felt at ease with her warm and friendly manner but was really impressed with her ability to explain complex legal procedures in a clear and easy to understand way. Joanna showed a rare almost unique quality of being willing to pass on specialist advice before I actually became a client of JWP. She put my needs for information before JWP’s need to make money. That I find is all too rare in the legal profession and indeed the wider business world. Finally it comes as no surprise that every other review gives her the absolute maximum rating, obviously her other clients all feel the same way.

We were fully informed on all steps going through the process. We felt confident in Ronda and all the BG staff involved. We were helped and our minds put at rest after every phone call made.

Codi Cullington

Tagged solicitor Codi Cullington

A professional service, w§high was required at an emotional and difficult time. Codi specifically took the time to explain the requirements and the application process. Then when instructions had been given, she kept myself informed of all developments and continued to be the single point of contact. Very pleased with the service.
