Initial no obligation consultation – Fixed fee options available

At Probate8 you have the opportunity at the outset to discuss your situation with legal professionals without worrying that fees are clocking up. We will agree a fee package that best meets your requirements.

Hassle free approach

At Probate8 we like to keep things plain and simple. We will let you know what we need from you and we'll do the rest.

Experienced legal professionals

The Probate8 team are all legally qualified experts. As such they are regulated (by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority) and governed by strict codes of practice and conduct.

Service tailored to your needs

Every estate is different. There are certain aspects which it may be quicker and easier to have done professionally and others you decide to do yourself. At Probate8 we work with you to agree how we can help in the best and most cost efficient way.

Fast track to probate office

The Probate8 team are in regular contact with the probate office and have an excellent working relationship with them. As legal professionals we can use a special shortened process to get the Grant of Probate (or Letters of Administration if there is no Will). This will help us get the job done quicker for you and there will be no need for you to attend the court in person.

Regular updates on progress

At Probate8 customer service is very important to us. You will be working with a dedicated member of the team who will look after your case and keep you informed of progress on a regular basis.

Tax saving opportunities

In some cases there can be opportunities to reduce or eliminate the amount paid in Inheritance Tax by rearranging the estate. At Probate8 our experts can advise you on this and carry out the necessary legal work.

Peace of mind

As an executor (or administrator) you are accountable to the beneficiaries and others (such as creditors, HM Revenue and the Department of Work and Pensions). This can be difficult especially at a time when emotions may be running high. You can even be personally liable if you get it wrong. At Probate8 you and the beneficiaries can rely on us to ensure tax and legal matters are dealt with properly.
