Probate Solicitors

Probate is the legal process that takes place after a person dies to settle their estate and distribute their assets to the beneficiaries named in their will, or according to state laws if there is no will. Our dedicated team of probate solicitors can provide expert advice.

We can help with contested inheritances, disputes over will validity and claims for beneficiaries, children and spouses under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975.

We can advise you on the following types of disputes:

  • One of the executors no longer wishes to continue – What can I do?
  • One of my family members has been excluded from the will and is threatening to contest the will
  • What are my rights to claim from the will?
  • How long do I have to contest the will?
  • My family member is taking financial advantage of one of my parents whilst they are ill, what can I do about this?
  • I need to limit the nursing home fees of my parent, how can I minimise this?
