Wills Probate and Estate Administration 

Leaving a valid will in place means that after your death, your property and possessions will be distributed in accordance with your wishes.

Dying without a will can give rise to serious problems for those you leave behind. It's important to realise that some family members may not receive any financial provision if you leave no will and the rules of intestacy have to be applied to your estate.

We can help people across Epsom, Surrey and nationwide draft your will and advise you on inheritance tax planning, including the creation of all types of trust. If you already have a will, it's a good idea to review it from time to time, especially if your circumstances have changed. We'll help ensure that its terms are still in accordance with your wishes and meet your requirements.

We understand how distressing bereavement can be. Dealing with someone's affairs can be complicated and difficult.

We can help you obtain a Grant of Probate when someone has died leaving a will, and with the Grant of Letters of Administration where no will was left. We can assist in the administration of the estate and any legal issues that may arise.

If you and other beneficiaries of an estate want to change a person's will after their death, as long as any beneficiaries left worse off by the changes agree, this can be done within two years of the death. This also applies in the case of intestacies.
