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.

We contacted Sherrards for assistance with a Lifetime Will Trust in respect of my late father's estate. David Mulholland was extremely knowledgeable and efficient. He took us through the registration process step by step. Any queries we had were dealt with promptly and satisfactorily, and the matter has now been concluded. We would definitely recommend.

My husband and I have used the services of Newnham and Jordan on two occasions and found their staff Neil, Richard and Katie to be exceptionally supportive, keeping us informed and reassured throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend them highly enough to provide legal support. Thank you
