FAQs
Probate is the procedure followed by the Executors or Personal Representatives after a person has died. They will need to swear an oath to obtain Grant of Probate which will give them the powers needed to administer the estate, for example, to distribute monies to beneficiaries under the Will (or the intestacy rules) and to transfer land or shares. If you have been appointed to act as an Executor by someone you have sadly lost then we can help you to relieve the stress and emotion of dealing with probate. We will work with you or deal with matters entirely should you wish. For smaller, less complex estates we offer a fixed fee.
