Grant of Probate
If the value of the estate you’re executing is over £5,000, it’s highly likely you’ll need a Grant of Probate before you can start releasing possessions, funds and property to the Beneficiaries. We can help you obtain such a Grant quickly and efficiently.
Letters of Administration
If there’s no Will, you can’t get a Grant of Probate. You can though get a Letter of Administration which essentially does the same thing: gives you permission to start dividing the estate. Get in touch to discuss how we can help you.
Contested Probate
Conflict can happen before / during Probate. You / Others can challenge a Will based on a number of Laws. We can help you defend against someone contesting or help you contest.
