Probate & Estate Administration

Probate & Estate Administration Services from A.A. Holmes Solicitors

Dealing with the death of a relative is a very emotional and difficult time. The administration of a loved one’s estate can be stressful and extremely time consuming and trying to handle such matters whilst grieving can be very challenging.

The probate process can be complicated and what often appear to be straight forward at the outset can prove to be quite the reverse.  Kate Perry has many years of experience in handling this delicate situation.
During the administration process it will be necessary to:-

  • Obtain professional and date of death valuations for all assets within the estate.
  • Apply for a Grant of Probate (or Letters of Administration where there is no Will).
  • Prepare and submit tax returns for income tax and inheritance tax.
  • Request and recover all of the estate assets.
  • Distribute the estate assets strictly in accordance with the terms of the Will.
