Will Reviews

As life evolves, so do your priorities and circumstances. Regular reviews  are essential to ensure that your Will remains appropriate and reflective of your wishes. Forster Dean Solicitors’ Will and Probate Team provides thorough and insightful Will reviews, identifying any necessary updates or amendments to align with changes in your life, family structure or financial situation.

Probate

Dealing with the legal and administrative aspects of a loved one’s Estate after their passing can be a challenging and emotionally taxing process.   Our Will and Probate Team is experienced in handling Probate matters with sensitivity and efficiency. We guide Executors and Administrators through the process, ensuring the smooth and timely Administration of the Estate, including the distribution of assets and settlement of liabilities.

Trusts

Establishing Trusts can be a strategic and effective way to protect and manage your assets for the benefit of your loved ones. Our Will and Probate Team provides comprehensive advice on the creation and administration of Trusts, tailoring our approach to meet your specific goals, whether they involve Tax mitigation & planning, asset protection, or providing for future generations.

      Testimonials

      I found everyone I spoke to very polite and helpful. They were also efficient. They made the situation comfortable to talk and relax. I was very nervous never having had dealings with solicitors or making a claim so I am very happy to relate my experience with neighbours and friends.
