We can help you with:
Obtaining a Grant of Probate
If property was held in the deceased’s sole name or their assets are worth more than £5,000 or a financial institution is refusing to deal with you until you have the relevant authority then you are likely to need to make an application to the Probate Registry.
- Making an application for a ‘Grant of Probate’ which will give you the authority to act.
- Advising you on your duties as named Executors in a Will and guiding you through the process.
- Calculating and arranging the payment of inheritance tax.

- Tracing and collecting in all money and assets.
