Estate administration

Our team of specialist lawyers has acknowledged expertise in probate and administration work.

It is easy to underestimate the role of a personal representative, whether executor or administrator, when someone dies. The job involves considerable responsibility. 

Duties are owed to creditors of the deceased and to HM Revenue & Customs, as well as to beneficiaries who will need to be satisfied that the estate has been dealt with correctly.

Personal representatives who get it wrong may face personal liability for any consequent loss. 

We are used to winding up estates of every size and complexity. Our specialist probate lawyers can alleviate the burden placed on personal representatives by handling all aspects of an estate administration in an efficient and sensitive manner. Their knowledge and experience will ensure that any difficult issues are dealt with.

Alongside our well established reputation for this type of work, we offer the advantages of a full administration service at a fixed price wherever possible.

If you are a personal representative please contact a member of the probate team for a quotation. You will be invited to complete our probate questionnaire. This will enable us to provide a specific fee proposal following a no-obligation discussion of requirements, either in person or by telephone.

We also offer a variety of fixed fee services aimed at those who only require help in obtaining a Grant of Representation, or can provide additional help to personal representatives through Executor Support.
