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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This work covers obtaining a grant of probate or letters of administration by swearing an oath and submitting the papers to the Probate Registry after someone dies. A solicitor helps gather the death certificate, the will (if any), and a schedule of assets and liabilities, prepares the oath and supporting affidavits, and lodges the application for the grant. They then help collect assets, notify banks and government bodies, pay debts and taxes, and distribute the estate according to the will or law.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A failed or delayed grant may expose executors to personal liability for debts and missed deadlines. A solicitor provides professional accountability, manages client money through a protected client account, and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements, including probate procedure and duties under the Administration of Estates.

Louise Harris

Tagged solicitor Louise Harris

When I needed some legal advice I reached out to Louise Harris at Baldwin and Robinson. Louise was very informative and honest with me and gave great advice. Even though her organisation could not help me with my situation she took the time to give me contact details of other solicitors that could help me.

Jodie SmithKimberley Sheung Kong

Tagged solicitors Jodie Smith and Kimberley Sheung Kong

Another great service from N Legal who have just dealt with my probate and late mothers estate, the process was completely stress free, very fast and effectively efficient especially during these difficult times. I have been using the services of N Legal Solicitors for nearly two decades. First when I was a Sales Negotiator at a local estate agency, and since then, I have turned to their expertise multiple times for both buying and selling properties. Their service is consistently professional, communication is outstanding, and their attention to detail is exceptional. Kim and the team have always made me feel secure and supported throughout the entire process. Legal matters can be incredibly time-consuming and often confusing. Kim demonstrates both deep expertise and a confident ability to handle cases across various areas of law. I wholeheartedly recommend N Legal to anyone in need of legal advice.

Matthew Nicholls

Tagged solicitor Matthew Nicholls

I turned to Nicholls Solicitors to handle a complicated probate matter, and Matt has been nothing but professional, courteous, and extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He showed great understanding of the delicate nature of the situation and the emotional difficulty our family was facing at the time. His support made a challenging time much more manageable. I have no hesitation in recommending Nicholls Solicitors to anyone who asks, "Do you know of a good solicitor firm?" Glenn Trew
