Personal Wills, Trusts and Probate
Probate and Estate Administration
We offer a range of services to assist the recently bereaved in the administration of estates.
From making applications for Grants of Probate through to administering long term trusts set up under wills, we can assist in all aspects of estate administration.
In disputed estates we work together with our colleagues in Dispute Resolution. We also identify the tax and family benefits of Deeds of Variation.
Within our dedicated department we have a broad and deep range of experience, regularly dealing with estates that range from the straightforward to the complex. Due to our location we regularly deal with cross-border and agricultural estates.
Our long-established reputation means we are trusted to deal with high value estates requiring claims for Inheritance Tax Reliefs, including those containing family businesses and complex trusts.
At what can be a difficult time for bereaved family and friends we always recognise the need for sensitivity in dealing with you and clarity in our advice.
