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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Testamentary trusts cover trusts created by a person’s will that take effect after their death. A solicitor practicing in this area drafts, reviews and refines the will to set up the trust, appoints or executors and trustees, defines who benefits and how distributions are made, and sets any powers or restrictions on trustees. They also help with registering the trust for tax purposes, advise on IHT and other taxes, and handle the arrival of assets into the trust on death, liaising with executors and beneficiaries throughout the process.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

A testamentary trust is created by a will and managed by trustees after death. A solicitor provides professional oversight, ensures the trust terms are clear and enforceable, coordinates the transfer of assets into the trust, addresses tax implications, and handles regulatory requirements such as safeguarding client funds and reporting to the appropriate tax authorities.

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.

Lea Maynard

Tagged solicitor Lea Maynard

Following the death of my husband, I was faced with the issues of dealing with transferring title of our jointly held French property (a very small house) into my name only and subsequently the sale of the house. I had no knowledge of the stages involved or how to approach them. These difficulties were compounded by a very unresponsive Notaire in France. Lea came to my rescue, explained the process and various stages involved and undertook the negotiations with the Notaire. It transpired to be a long process (although I now understand that it is inevitably much longer than in the UK) but Lea chased and followed up with the Notaire, resulting in a successful transfer of title and sale. This help and advice was invaluable. Always professional but kind, understanding and empathetic. Someone on whom I could rely. With my sincere thanks to Lea and to Buckles.

I found Rebecca Minns to be very helpful and professional. She clearly explained various aspects of updating my will. Changes were made and a few weeks later I was able to go into the office to have the will signed and witnessed. I was very happy with the service I received.

Chris Strogen

Tagged solicitor Chris Strogen

As a former Executor, and now Trustee, I had approached Chris Strogen for legal advice and guidance to assist with a complex Trust situation. All through the process Chris helped to ensure that my approach was both legal and appropriate for the circumstances, appertaining to a convoluting Trust going back 80 years. This is the second time I have employed Chris with family law matters and he has always put me at ease. I have no hesitation in recommending Chris and Evolve Family Law Ltd.

On the three occasions we have needed help and advice your solicitor Victoria Cross was excellent in helping us navigate what could have been very difficult time for us. We will never forget her kindness and understanding along with her secretary Lois who has always been extremely helpful. Thank you to them both.
