Probate covers arranging the winding up of a deceased person’s estate, including applying for the Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration, collecting assets, paying debts, and distributing what remains to beneficiaries. A solicitor in this area drafts and authenticates the necessary documents, identifies the estate’s liabilities, handles inheritance tax where needed, liaises with executors and beneficiaries, and guides clients through court procedures if contested or complex. The work is shaped by the estate size, tax rules, and asset types.

“As a man in his mid seventies, I had just experienced the death of my mother and then my wife, just eighteen months apart. Their preceeding illnesses and deaths so close together left me shattered and exhausted. I have no nearby family to help me. Kate Deathridge the lawyer handling my case acted with calm professionalism and integrity. I have the highest regard for her work in helping me to a happy outcome. Thanks also to her legal secretary Jo Riley. Thank you Kate! ”

“I was entirely happy with the professional and empathic handling of my father's estate and with all communications received from Meg Wilton and her team. Additional suggestions and advice were given which enabled a smooth and very acceptable variance of the original Will which has satisfied and gratified the family. I set up my new home in the confident knowledge that my father, and mother before him, would have in turn been pleased to see this outcome. I would be very happy to recommend Meg's services of similar matters to others. ”

“I rarely give 5* reviews but will gladly give one to Sharon Heselton/Victoria Phelan who handled my mother's probate. My mother died without a lawyer and BP Collins were one of three firms who pitched for the business. Sharon was convincing and upfront on how best to proceed, allowing us to doing the work that was better for us to do than using lawyers (e.g. sorting out the credit cards). Her quote was reasonable, she came in on quote, and was always pleasant and efficient to work with.”
