What does probate involve in the UK?
- Validating the will: Obtaining a Grant of Probate when a will exists, or Letters of Administration when there is no valid will.
- Estate valuation: Assessing the total value of assets, including property, investments, and personal belongings.
- Settling debts and taxes: Identifying and paying off outstanding debts, including inheritance tax and other liabilities.
- Asset distribution: Distributing the estate according to the will or, in its absence, the rules of intestacy.
- Resolving disputes: Addressing any challenges or disputes that may arise during the probate process, such as disagreements among beneficiaries.
How can a solicitor help with probate, and what does it cost?
A probate solicitor can:
- Provide expert advice: Explaining the probate process, your legal obligations, and the best strategy for administering the estate.
- Prepare and file documentation: Assisting with the completion of probate applications, valuations, and other required forms to ensure compliance with legal standards.
- Manage estate administration: Overseeing the settlement of debts and taxes, and ensuring the smooth distribution of assets among beneficiaries.
- Represent you in disputes: If conflicts or challenges arise during probate, a solicitor can represent your interests in negotiations or court proceedings.
Costs for probate work depend on the complexity of the estate, the value of the assets, and the solicitor’s experience. Hourly rates generally range from £150 to £400, while many firms offer fixed-fee packages for straightforward cases. An initial consultation—often free or available at a reduced rate—will help you understand your options, estimate expenses, and determine the best approach for your probate needs.
