When you experience the unfortunate loss of a loved family member, the reality of dealing with the left behind estate can be very daunting and overwhelming. It can also take significant time and get complex, depending on how big the estate is that has been left. Eddowes, Perry & Osbourne Solicitors are one of the largest and longest established law firms in Sutton Coldfield providing probate services.

WHAT IS A PROBATE SOLICITOR?

A probate solicitor understands in depth the law surrounding what happens to a person’s estate when they die, including what happens if someone dies without a will in place. They will support you through the probate process, knowing when Wills are valid or invalidated and help you to understand the legal terms used within them and what it means in practical terms.

WHY WOULD USE A PROBATE SOLICITOR FOR ESTATE ADMINISTRATION?

Enlisting a specialised probate solicitor is a good idea to give trusted legal advice and help with all of the estate administration required to process a Will. They will help to simplify the process, knowing the correct steps to take to deal with matters quickly and efficiently.

The solicitor will take full responsibility for the administration process, so it takes it off your hands, important when needing time to grieve. It helps reduce the possibility of family disagreements over the division of assets. If parties involved are not happy with the split of money or property, they will have to go through legal channels to voice their concerns.

Many people do not realise the different taxes that have to be paid when administering someone’s estate. These can include Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax, and Inheritance Tax. Tax returns for each need to be completed and our Probate Solicitors at EPO will do this, speaking with the HMRC on your behalf. They will ensure the tax calculated is accurate to avoid under or overpaying, and that they apply for relevant exceptions and reductions.

It is crucial that during the Probate process, all assets are properly managed as set out in a persons Will, and an experienced solicitor is the best way to keep track of the money going in and out. It can be a very lengthy process with many different forms to fill in, often up to a year depending on the makeup of the estate.

In safe hands

I can’t thank David Smith enough for the way in which he handled my divorce. His friendly and approachable manner was much appreciated, throughout what was inevitably a difficult and emotional time. He also fought my corner with tenacity, leading to a fabulous financial settlement. At a time of such uncertainty, it is reassuring to know that you are in safe hands……I would not hesitate to recommend David to anyone going through the same experience.

Great, clear advice delivered in a personable manner

David’s advice was critical in resolving a complex family matter. Without his involvement, the case would have stalled. He helped me to understand the legalities of the situation and provided direction in what I found to be a highly confusing situation. Great, clear advice delivered in a personable manner.

Nothing was too much for him

David really made me at ease and helped me through the whole process. Nothing was too much for him and he always made time for me.

Huge thank you to David

Huge thank you to David for making a horrible stage of my life, going through a hostile divorce a whole lot more bearable. Don’t know how I would have got through it without you.

Bought my first home which completed today, and I could not be happier!My Solicitor, Katie Dwyer, was absolutely fantastic and helped me each step of the way. Her guidance, professionalism and support was second to none. She even went out of her way to assist by attending a meeting in the evening to ensure that documents were completed when needed. I honestly could not have had a better Solicitor. If you want a fantastic Solicitor, contact Katie at Eddowes Perry & Osbourne. She was recommended to me. I, like a lot of others, have come to realise that Katie is not only a truly talented Solicitor, but also an incredible person.

We had the pleasure of having Maria as our conveyancing solicitor, for my purchase and sales that concluded couple of weeks ago. Right from the start of the engagement, I found Maria very professional, transparent and courteous. She ticked all the boxes that one could think of to make the rather complex conveyancing process smooth and easier. Given the post covid market conditions having a right solicitors was very important and I can only be thankful to Maria and the EPO team for overcoming the challenges on our sales and our purchase to ensure timely completion. At all times she kept us well informed about the progress and provided us with a first class service in terms of the guidance and ensuring appropriate due diligence. Can’t thank Maria and her team enough for their hard work. Maria is trustworthy and a safe pair of hands for any conveyancing needs.

I found it easy to contact this company and their communication is exceptionally good. An appointment for my mother to have a home visit was quickly arranged for a date and time that suited her. The solicitor took the trouble to comply with the Covid restrictions at my mother’s accommodation and the visit was not at all rushed. The solicitor put my mother at ease and was particularly courteous and helpful. Having taken my mother’s instructions the solicitor quickly produced the draft document and arranged for a follow up visit for the final document to be signed. This involved some more work than was originally quoted for but the invoice was for the quoted amount. The solicitor was thoroughly professional and efficient but, importantly for my mother, friendly and approachable. I wish that I had used this company for other legal work that I have needed recently as I am sure that I would have had a much better experience. I would definitely use this company for any future work and wholeheartedly recommend them to others. Thanks very much for such an excellent and considerate job.
