Probate

Dealing with the practicalities of bereavement can be time consuming and cause additional stress during a difficult time.
Our experienced and dedicated probate team can provide the guidance and support you need to make the process as straightforward, and worry free, as possible.
We act on behalf of executors, trustees, administrators or beneficiaries. Where appropriate, experts within TLT are available to act as executors, administrators and attorneys.
We obtain grants of probate and administer estates of varying complexity and value, including those with an international element.
Our service includes dealing with all tax matters, including the personal tax affairs of the deceased and all tax issues arising from the administration. We provide full and easy to understand estate accounts, advise on mitigating tax, making post death variations to a will and considering ways to maximise the value of an estate.
Our specialists also help with trusts created on death and guide clients in their role as trustees, executors or beneficiaries.
We can provide a personal, cost effective and efficient service tailored to your needs. Whether this is initial guidance to obtain the grant of probate or a full administration service, we're happy to provide as little or as much assistance as you need.
