Valuable Estate Administration Expertise

It is hard enough to cope with bereavement without the added stress of the inevitable paperwork that follows.

A typical Estate Administration will involve ascertaining the assets of the estate and valuing them, applying for a Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration, paying any Inheritance Tax (IHT) that may be due or completing paperwork for HM Revenue & Customs to confirm that no IHT is due, paying all outstanding debts and liabilities and then finally distributing the estate to those entitled to receive it.

Even in an estate of modest value the amount of paperwork involved can be overwhelming.

We provide a sympathetic and efficient service to make the Estate Administration process as stress-free as possible.

We are often able to quote fixed fees for the work we undertake, so you can be confident that the cost is manageable and transparent.

How We Can Help You With Estate Administration

Following the passing of a family member, administering that person’s estate is one of the more complex and crucial steps in the entire process. In some cases, it can be made even more complicated because the deceased left no Will, or perhaps their Will was deemed invalid for one reason or another.

Here at Tinsdills, we can be your helping hand through every step of this process.

Following the death, the family member’s assets will be distributed. If a Will is in place and adequately updated, this process can be smooth and simple.

Even then, it is highly recommended you use professionals such as ourselves. If there is no Will, you will need an Administrator. More often than not, the deceased’s next of kin will fulfil this role. If this happens to be yourself, you must distribute assets per UK law.

Here at Tinsdills, our vastly experienced solicitors can deliver expert advice on achieving this. We can answer all questions you might have relating to Estate Administration. No matter what the circumstances, we will help you throughout this process.
