Probate and Estate Administration

Clarity through care. Support when it matters most.
We advise executors, administrators, beneficiaries and families on all aspects of UK and international probate and estate administration. Our role is to manage the legal and practical complexities of dealing with an estate – providing guidance that is efficient, empathetic and discreet.

As an independent London firm with deep experience in estate law, we combine technical skill with sound judgement and sensitivity. We work closely with our clients and their professional advisers to ensure that estates are administered correctly, assets preserved, and family relationships maintained. The guidance we provide gives you confidence and clarity at every step. 

 

A joined-up view 

 

Probate and estate administration often involve overlapping issues of law, tax and jurisdiction. We take a holistic approach – collaborating across private client, tax and international teams to deliver a seamless service for both UK and cross-border estates. 

 

Our advice covers: 

 

  • UK and international succession law 
  • Cross-border estates and jurisdictional coordination 
  • Forced heirship rules and inheritance disputes 
  • Taxation and compliance 
  • Heritage and high-value assets 
  • Obtaining a Grant of Representation 
  • Resealing foreign Grants of Probate or equivalent 
  • Post-death variations 
  • Acting as executor or administrator 

 

Where estates span multiple jurisdictions, we coordinate with local advisers to ensure assets are identified, valued and distributed efficiently, in accordance with the law and the deceased’s wishes. 

 

Quiet strength. Lasting reassurance. 

 

We recognise that probate work is both legally detailed and personally sensitive. Our approach is calm, practical and compassionate – ensuring that matters are handled with efficiency and respect. We focus on achieving resolution with minimal stress for those involved, while protecting value and family harmony. 

 

As a certified B Corporation, we are committed to acting responsibly and with integrity – helping families navigate difficult times with care and confidence. 

 

Three-dimensional advice

We look beyond immediate administration to anticipate the longer-term implications for families, trusts and beneficiaries – ensuring each estate is handled with precision, foresight and empathy.
