Our Swansea probate solicitors understand that if you require the use of their services, you are probably going through a difficult time.
This is why it is their ethos to remain sympathetic and respectful, while maintaining the highest levels of professionalism.
With sufficient time and knowledge it is possible to complete probate yourself, but overwhelmingly most people feel it is worthwhile enlisting the help of a lawyer to help with the process.
There is a lot of paperwork, and several different stages involved in probate. Below are a few of the steps our specialists will take;
Value the Estate
Contact banks, building societies and other organisations which hold any assets
Calculate the Inheritance Tax bill
Settle any debts, assuming there are sufficient funds available
Distribute the assets as set out in the Will
We understand how hard this time can be, so to let our sensitive, understanding lawyers handle the matter, call our team on the number at the bottom of the screen.
Our specialists can also assist with Power of Attorney.
Wills
Writing a Will is never near the top of our 'to do' lists, but not leaving one can mean a lot of stress and anxiety for your loved ones in the event of your death.
Below are a few reasons you might want to consider writing yours;
You can state who you wish to look after any children or dependents
Cohabiting couples do not automatically inherit as married couples or civil partners do
You can ensure important charities or close friends will receive something
It may be possible to mitigate your Inheritance Tax bill
