    In Scotland the work covers preparing wills, advising on and creating trust arrangements, and handling succession and executry administration after death. A solicitor drafts testamentary writing, advises on legal rights and prior rights, assists an executor in collecting and valuing moveable and heritable assets, applies to the sheriff court for grant of confirmation, prepares executry accounts, deals with Registers of Scotland for land transfers, and represents clients in family provision or contested succession actions in the sheriff courts or Court of Session. Adults’ incapacity matters proceed under the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000 when deputies or guardianship are required.
