Probate work covers the lawful handling of someone’s estate after death, including obtaining a grant of probate or letters of administration, valuing assets, paying debts, and distributing assets to beneficiaries under a will or intestacy rules. A solicitor in this area drafts and prepares the necessary forms, negotiates with executors and beneficiaries, collects documents from banks and HMRC, and liaises with the Probate Registry and other authorities to ensure a valid, orderly settlement.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor manages complex steps such as verifying the will, obtaining the grant of probate or letters of administration, asset valuation, dealing with outstanding debts and taxes, and resolving potential disputes among beneficiaries.

We instructed Alster Kelley to deal with our recent purchase. Helen Checketts was our solicitor and was excellent and responsive in her communication throughout. Buying a house can be stressful but she made it a pleasant experience! I would highly recommend both Helen and Alsters Kelley.

Susan Owens

Tagged solicitor Susan Owens

I recently used Borneo Martell Turner Coulston to write my will, and I couldn't be more impressed with the service I received. From the first meeting, Susan was friendly, clear, and reassuring. Susan's calm, professional approach made what can, for some, be a daunting and emotional process, straightforward and stress-free. Susan explained everything in plain English, answered all questions patiently, and supported ably by Leanne ensured the final document truly reflected my wishes and that every detail was accurate and in line with what I wanted. I appreciated that during the process I felt listened to and respected. I'm grateful to all at BMTC for making the process so smooth. I recommend them to anyone seeking expert, compassionate support on such legal matters.

Shelley Collingbourne

Tagged solicitor Shelley Collingbourne

From the beginning of the matter, my solicitor mapped out the procedure to be adopted which varied during the process but we were always met with a positive "can do" approach. I felt that the communication and explanations of the procedure were communicated to me in a positive, timely and easily understood manner. I was very impressed throughout.

Tagged solicitors Rebecca Everson and Sarah Stainsby

I had multiple legal matters to deal with at the same time and after contacting Hewitt's about one of them Rebecca took on my case and I was so impressed with how she dealt with it right from the onset going well above and beyond what I was expecting, so much so that before it had even been concluded I had decided to bring my other outstanding legal matters to Hewitt's (despite having an appointment already booked elsewhere for one). My second matter was delt with by another of solicitor 'Sarah' she also provided a fantastic service and was able to complete mine and my wife's wills within just a few weeks, explaining everything to us and answer all questions along the way. If I could rate the service I've had from these two solicitors and Hewitt's as a whole with 10 stars I would, but as I can't one thing I can and will certainly be doing is using Hewitt's for all my future legal matter going forward.
