Wills and Probate Solicitors: Probate Solicitors.co.uk

Most solicitors will help with all aspects of the administration of a person’s affairs following their death, itipically this will include

  1. valuing the estate,
  2. completing the Inland Revenue account
  3. any inheritance tax issues that arise,
  4. obtaining the Grant of Probate or Representation
  5. the sale of land or property,
  6. collecting in and distributing assets to beneficiaries
  7. income and capital gains tax issues.

It is possible to change a person’s will after their death, to do this all beneficiaries must agree, to make it more efficient for tax purposes, your chosen solicitor will advise on this.

Often the person left to deal with an estate is a close family member, and at such a time dealing with the bank or the Inland Revenue, will not be at the top of someone’s list of priorities; your chosen solicitor can take all the stress and worry away, by sympathetically dealing with such matters whilst you take time to deal with your grief.

your solicitor can also advise on the effects when a person dies without leaving a valid will (called intestacy); they can advise on who is entitled to what, and can deal with the whole process for you

solicitors.co.uk recommends that you email the details of your circumstances, using the email form next to your chosen solicitor, to receive advice on your particular situation.
