Understanding wills & probate services

What wills and probate solicitors do

These firms prepare wills and lasting powers of attorney, administer estates, apply for the grant of probate, and advise on inheritance tax and trusts. Estates involving property, inheritance tax or a dispute are where professional help matters most — many firms offer a fixed fee or a percentage of the estate, so it is worth comparing.

Planning ahead

A clear, up-to-date will and a registered power of attorney spare your family stress and cost later. Review your will after major life events — marriage, children, buying a home or a death in the family.
