Free probate advice
Free confidential legal advice with one of our specialist probate solicitors
Administering an estate
We can advise you on all aspects of probate and the administration of estates including executors responsibilities, tax implications and any inheritance issues.
Deeds of Variation
In certain circumstances, wills can be rewritten after death to minimise tax liabilities and change beneficiaries. These are called ‘Deeds of Variation’ and can be used, for example, to transfer an inheritance to the next generation.
Inheritance and Will Disputes
Sometimes wills are challenged and claims made by both family and non-family members. This often occurs in situations where there are second families. We can advise you on the validity of the will in question and on whether you have a case.
Intestacy
If someone dies ‘intestate’ it means that they have died without making a will. We can advise on the intestacy rules which can be complicated and sometimes contrary to the family's wishes. It may be possible to change them by Deed of Variation.
