Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Trustee in Bankruptcy, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

A trustee in bankruptcy takes over the debtor’s estate when a bankruptcy order is made, realises assets, pays costs, and distributes funds to creditors. A solicitor in this area advises on the appointment, the trustee’s duties, and the process of realising assets, dealing with claims, and filing the necessary reports and accounts with the Insolvency Service. The work often involves statutory investigations, reporting on the debtor’s conduct, and ensuring correct distribution of dividends to creditors.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The appointment triggers time-bound tasks: collecting assets, valuing them, paying priority debts, and distributing the remainder to creditors. The process is governed by the Insolvency Act 1986 and related insolvency rules, with the trustee required to act in the debtor’s and creditors’ best interests and to keep proper accounts and reports. The role carries fiduciary duties and potential consequences for mismanagement.

Matthew Briggs

Tagged solicitor Matthew Briggs

I have dealt with Matthew for a number of years in his capacity as looking after my parents estate and planning their inheritance. Unfortunately last year I worked more closely with him due to the passing of my mother. The LPA process for my father who has Alzheimer’s was seamless and his advice and support in dealing with both my mother’s will and ensuring my father is protected due to his current capacity has been exceptional. His support for us as a family, the empathy he has shown and the way he has helped and communicated with us have been first class. I look forward to continuing to work with him.

Julie Granger

Tagged solicitor Julie Granger

Kingfords dealt with my late wife's probate and also writing a new will for myself. Everything went smoothly with face to face meetings, telephone consultations and draft documents via email. I highly recommend Kingsfords and especially Julie Granger who dealt with my new Will. Also the secretaries were very helpful.

Amazing assistance, thorough, timely and supportive. Sarah Lister was skilled in her work and she gave estimates of how long things would take. Sarah managed the complexity of this issue smoothly and successfully. Sarah went over and above to help me through a grief process.
