Our Lincoln probate solicitors understand how hard the time following the death of a loved one can be, and make it their priority to guide you through the legal side of things smoothly and sensitively.
With sufficient effort and time it is possible to complete probate yourself, but the vast majority of individuals feel it is more than worthwhile enlisting the help of a legal expert for the task.
Our solicitors will inform any banks, building societies or other institutions which hold any assets, value the Estate, settle any debts, and distribute the assets as set out in the Will.
In short we will shoulder as much of the legal burden as possible so you can focus on getting your life back on track.
We have a team of experienced probate lawyers who can also assist with Inheritance Tax queries, Power of Attorney, and intestacy (where no Will has been left). Speak to our team to find out more about how our Lincoln probate solicitors can help.
Wills
We always encourage our clients to write a Will. It may seem unimportant now, but failing to leave a valid Will document can mean a lot of unnecessary expense and hard work for those you leave behind.
Below are a few practical reasons you might want to consider writing yours;
You can decide who gets what, otherwise this privilege will go to the government
If you are not married or in a civil partnership, your partner is otherwise not legally entitled to inherit
You can state who should look after your children, should the worst happen to you
With some careful planning it may be possible to minimise your Inheritance Tax bill
You can express any particular requests for your funeral, for example cremation vs burial
