Estate administration

Upon the death of a relative, administering their estate is an important step to undertake. In some circumstances, this is more difficult because there is no will or it is somehow invalid. QualitySolicitors can guide you through what the right steps are.

When a death happens, the assets of the deceased are distributed. This is made simple where a well drafted and up-to-date will is in place. Where there is no will or what is drafted is not legally valid, this requires an administrator. Often, this is the next of kin. If this is you, you are required to distribute the assets in accordance with the relevant laws.

At QualitySolicitors, we advise you how to do this. We can deal with your questions - we have some of the best lawyers in the UK. In some circumstances, you may ask us to act as the estate administrator. Whatever your situation, we can guide you through the process. We keep things simple. We promise to keep in regular contact with you and will always use plain English.

If you need support administrating an estate and you aren’t sure what to do, let QualitySolicitors give you the answers. Contact your local QualitySolicitors branch today on

Wills and probate

Life is full of twists and turns and none of us can be sure what the future holds. That’s why creating a will makes good sense. As more and more people realise the importance of making a will, it’s no longer seen as something just for the elderly or ill but simply part of sound financial planning for any family or individual.

Inheritance and tax planning

Planning ahead for when you die allows you to set out clearly who should get what from your estate. QualitySolicitors Lawson & Thompson can help you think through your plans and their financial impact. Our aim is to ensure that your loved ones are cared for when you no longer can.

Making a will

For many of us, making a will is something we know we should do but never quite get round to. Of course, it’s important not to put it off and the good news is that at QualitySolicitors Lawson & Thompson, making a will could be much quicker and easier than you think.

Power of attorney

In an uncertain world it’s reassuring to know that our wishes will be respected even if we’re not in a position to make our own decisions. That’s why many people choose to create a lasting power of attorney (LPA) to provide protection should an accident or ill health prevent them from making decisions in the future.

Will and inheritance disputes

The terms of a Will can cause distress. If there isn’t one, this is difficult too. QualitySolicitors Lawson & Thompson can advise on any matter where a will or inheritance is in dispute.
