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.

Abbi Hancock

Tagged solicitor Abbi Hancock

I cannot thank Abbi enough for the support and professionalism she showed while helping me deal with matters relating to my late father’s estate. This has been an incredibly emotional and difficult time for me, but Abbi handled everything with great care, patience, and understanding. Her guidance throughout the process was clear, reassuring, and highly professional. She took the time to explain things properly and was always responsive whenever I had questions or needed reassurance. Her compassion and respectful approach made a situation that felt overwhelming much easier to manage. I am truly grateful for the help and support she provided and would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone needing a knowledgeable, reliable, and empathetic legal professional.

Amy Harris

Tagged solicitor Amy Harris

My wife and I are in our 90s and needed to make final wills and appoint Powers of Attorney - quite overwhelming tasks at our age involving several visits to our home and much paperwork. This was done by Amy in a friendly but professional way and after many months waiting for the Office of the Public Guardian to approve and register the documents all is now in place. All very much very much appreciated.

Really appreciated the support and guidance from Rachel, not just able to provide honest and clear guidance but was really just able to listen when I think that was what I needed the most. My concerns were treated compassionately and with empathy whilst giving me the direction I needed to move forward and I feel that I am back in control now. Thank you, cannot recommend highly enough!

David and Claire were extremely helpful in administering my mother’s Grant of Probate. From our initial meeting with David, who explained the process and advised on our situation, to Claire, who responded quickly to any queries and was very efficient in finalising this matter for us. Many thanks.

Caroline Sugrue

Tagged solicitor Caroline Sugrue

Chose BP Collins after searching for a UK solicitor online. I needed a solicitor quickly to deal with the cash sale of an inherited property. I was impressed by the Trustpilot score and reviews and was further impressed by the rapid and professional response to my initial query, which was superior to the other firms I contacted. Costs were clear and upfront and I was very happy with the way they advised and dealt with the sale of the property in question. I would happily use them again should the occasion arise, and would definitely recommend them.
