Losing someone close to you is a distressing time, not helped by the need to administer their estate with the many decisions and complexities of the law to contend with.
Holmes & Hills Solicitors’ team of friendly, dedicated, professionals are experts who are able to assist you with all aspects of estate administration whether you are an executor appointed by a Will or an administrator where there is no Will (an Intestacy).
Holmes & Hills Solicitors offers free initial guidance to executors on their roles and responsibilities, to ensure the first steps they take are the right ones*. This free initial guidance is supplied by a specialist probate and estate administration lawyer via a telephone appointment.

You can have peace of mind knowing that you will have the benefit of our expert knowledge to ensure you comply with your legal responsibilities.
