Estate Administration

It is an emotional and frequently overwhelming time following the death of a loved one.  If you are required to deal with the Estate after their death, there are several steps that you will need to take.  You will need to register their death, organise their funeral, collect in their assets, pay any debts, and then finally distribute the Estate.

Our Private Client Team can provide you with sympathetic advice during this time, and we can confirm whether a Grant of Probate is necessary to deal with the Estate or whether any Inheritance Tax is payable. Our Team can assist you where a loved one has died either with  or without a Will.  We can help with the whole administration process on your behalf, or we can simply make the application to the Court for the Grant to allow you to finalise matters yourself. 

If you have begun dealing with an Estate yourself but have found the process overwhelming, time-consuming or confusing, then our Team can assist you in finalising the Estate administration.  We can be involved as much, or as little, as you require.
