BEST PROBATE SOLICITORS PONTYPOOL

Fees Applicable for Probate and Conveyancing Work
In our initial letter to you, we will set out the terms of the retainer and details of the person who will look after your matter. We will also detail what steps we intend to take next, our estimate of the costs for dealing with the matter as well as any disbursements (money we pay out on your behalf), and any requirement for an advance payment on account of costs. These terms will form part of your contract with us, unless the fee earner agrees with you in writing any changes that will apply.

Service Standards
At Probate Solicitors Pontypool, we aim to achieve the highest possible levels of service when acting on your behalf. In particular, we aim to ensure that all requests for returned telephone calls are dealt with on the same day or as soon as possible thereafter (as may be agreed or requested). Your letters will have a substantive reply within seven working days, and we will always act in your best interests. If you need to see one of us personally, we can make a mutually convenient appointment at our offices or arrange to see you at your home. If you are unable to attend our offices or have a disability, we can arrange to see you at a neighbouring office with disabled access and facilities.

Costs Information – Fixed Fees
Most work is undertaken on the basis of a fixed fee, which will be agreed with you at the outset of the case. However, sometimes work is undertaken that was not anticipated at the start, or problems arise that were not expected when we originally agreed the fee. In such cases, the extra work may be charged on a time and work basis, but we will advise you when an additional charge may be made. Examples of where additional charges may arise include conveyancing where problems arise with the lease or in establishing information; probate cases where a will is challenged by one of the beneficiaries; and will preparation where separate meetings are needed with family members or financial advisers or specialist tax advice is needed.

Why Choose Us
We believe that we provide the best possible client-focused service that cannot be beaten. We use a bespoke case management system to ensure that all matters are dealt with as quickly and efficiently as possible and that you are kept informed of the progress throughout. With friendly professional staff available to discuss any concerns at any time throughout the progress of your matter, we will exceed your expectations. Choose Probate Solicitors Pontypool for friendly, practical, and professional advice.

FAQs

Learn more about Probate Solicitors Pontypool

Q: What is probate?

A: Probate is the legal process of administering a deceased person's estate. It involves gathering their assets, paying off any debts or taxes owed, and distributing what remains to the beneficiaries named in their will.

Q: Do all estates need to go through probate?

A: Not all estates are required to go through probate. If the deceased person's assets were jointly owned with someone else, for example, those assets will typically pass directly to the surviving owner. Similarly, if the estate is worth less than £10,000, probate may not be necessary.

Q: Who can apply for probate?

A: The executor named in the deceased person's will is typically responsible for applying for probate. If there is no will, or if no executor was named, an administrator will need to be appointed instead.

Q: How long does probate take?

A: The length of time it takes to complete probate can vary depending on a number of factors, including the size and complexity of the estate. In general, however, it can take anywhere from several months to a year or more to fully administer an estate.

Q: How much does probate cost?

A: The cost of probate can also vary depending on the size and complexity of the estate. In general, however, there will be a fee to apply for a grant of probate (currently £215 for estates worth £5,000 or more), as well as additional fees for things like valuing the estate and paying off any debts owed.

Q: Can I contest a will during probate?

A: Yes, it is possible to contest a will during probate if you believe that it is invalid or that you have been unfairly left out of it. However, this can be a complex and costly process, and it is generally recommended to seek legal advice before proceeding.
