Our solicitors can help you through Probate and estate administration with a tailored service offering exactly as much help or advice as you need. Cater Allen customers also get an exclusive discount on all our probate and estate administration services.
You may be responsible for administering someone’s estate because you’re named as the executor of their Will. If the deceased didn’t leave a Will and you need to sort out their affairs, you may take responsibility through the rules of intestacy instead.
Either way, that means organising their assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing what’s left. But first you’ll need to apply for a Grant of Probate if there is a Will or a Grant of Letters of Administration if there isn’t.
Whatever your situation, our solicitors are here for you. As a Cater Allen customer you can get discounted help with:
- Grant of Probate only – You’ll need to apply for this document if you want to administer the estate yourself. We’ll guide you through the probate process and completion of any necessary inheritance tax returns.
- Estate administration service – We can relieve the burden on you and help with as much or as little of the administration work as you want. That could include:
- Applying for a Grant of Probate
- Investigating and valuing the estate
- Collecting estate funds
- Filling out income and inheritance tax returns and paying any tax due
- Paying creditors
- Selling or transferring ownership of property
- Distributing funds and assets according to the Will
- Managing any Trusts in the Will.
Our Probate lawyers can assist with as much or as little of the process as you like. We can simply get a Grant of Probate for you, or you can pass all of your executor duties on to us, or something in-between.
We can also advise on estate administration if someone close to you has died without a Will.
Our large team of Probate solicitors, based around the country, have helped thousands of people manage their loved ones’ estates. We’ll guide you through Probate as quickly and easily as possible, supporting you in your role as executor to handle the deceased’s estate as they wished.
We work closely with our in-house tax, property and family law experts to give comprehensive advice on all legal issues that can arise during Probate. We also have extensive experience advising on international wealth management, trusts, and high value property transactions.
