Frequently asked questions

Do I have to use a solicitor for probate?

There is no legal requirement to use a solicitor, but we would always recommend seeking legal advice to ensure your rights and entitlements are respected. The process of probate can be rather complex, and we recommend moving forward with the help of expert legal advice.

Do I have to work with a probate solicitor in Warwick?

No, it is possible to choose a solicitor anywhere in the country, but many will start their search in the local area to make things easier. If you are unable to travel to Warwick for any reason, we are equipped to manage all probate cases remotely.

How long does probate take?

The time it takes to complete probate will depend entirely on the circumstances of the case. An estate can be quite complex, so the time taken to administer everything will depend on the assets, debts and beneficiaries involved. The first step is to obtain the Grant of Probate, which typically takes around 3-4 months. Next, it can take around 2-6 months to administer the estate.

How long after death do you have to apply for probate?

It is likely that you will need to apply for the grant of probate within 6 months of the death of your loved one. This is because you have a deadline to report the value of the estate to HMRC. This must be completed within 6 months.
