Wills and Probate

Making a Will is a relatively simply process but the effects are of the utmost importance. A Will ensures that your estate will pass to exactly the people you want to inherit. Without a Will your estate will be governed by the Intestacy Rules and may pass to people you did not want to inherit your estate.

We offer extremely competitive prices for this service and ensure that the process is not as complicated and onerous as you may think. To make an appointment or discuss further contact Matthew Clements or Rhydian James.

Probate

When a person dies it can be one of the most difficult times for a family. Usually, the last thing the family want to deal with is the deceased's estate and financial affairs. In certain circumstances it can be a difficulty and prolonged process.

You may need to apply for a Grant of Probate if the deceased left a Will, or Letters of Administration if they did not. The requirement for a Grant or Letters of Administration depends on the assets held by the deceased. Some examples of when these are required are listed below;

• Property needs to be transferred or sold
• Funds held in a bank or building society exceed £5,000.00.
• The estate comprises of stocks and shares

We can offer a comprehensive service from general advice on the process of the application for probate or indeed we can act on your behalf in the administration of the estate relieving from the many pressures you might experience at an extremely difficult time.

We also deal with claims under The Inheritance (Provision) for Family and Dependants Act 1975 together with advice in contesting a Will where the testator has been subject to duress or has lost capacity.

If you have any queries please contact John Clements, Roger James or Matthew Clements.
