The Administration of Estates

Administering an estate involves dealing with all property, investments and other assets of the person who has died and settling their tax and other liabilities and then distributing the estate between the beneficiaries entitled under the deceased’s Will or in accordance with the intestacy rules. The burden of administering an estate and complying with all the legal requirements can be a very daunting task for anybody particularly at a distressing time following the death of a close relative. 

The specialist Private Client Department at Thomas Flavell & Sons has considerable experience in dealing with estate administration and they will be able to guide and assist you on all the different aspects to whatever extent you require.

Why make a Trust?

Throughout their history trusts have been used to avoid or address problems in two main areas: taxation and domestic matters.

In your lifetime you can create a trust into which you can place chosen assets which you no longer need yourself. This reduces your own wealth and thus your exposure to Inheritance Tax.

For every family problem or situation there is a trust that can be constructed to suit the need. Creating the right type of trust to match your particular situation requires specialist help.

Very thorough and professional. Talked me through all the options. Used a questionnaire to get an outline of what I required. Talked to me through the Power of Attorney option as well. All done and subsequently updated until the final meeting.

We had put this task off for so long dreading it! But my husband and I found the solicitor, Vijay and his supporting team very understanding. They listened carefully to any concerns we had and made sure documents met our specific needs. Legal specific language was explained - no matter how many times we asked and the whole process was efficient and painless. Perfect.

First class with great legal knowledge and easy to understand. I chose TFS because Philip Baldwin did my previous Will with another solicitors 6 years ago in Hinckley that is no longer there. Since my previous Will, several events have taken place which I needed to address. I was very satisfied with the way he understood my wishes regards the changes I required. I knew he would be able to use his professional knowledge again he gave me sensible and practical advice which was easy to understand. He was honest about the cost. This service was dealt with very swiftly which was first class due to his great legal knowledge. I would certainly recommend Thomas Flavell & Sons again.

From enquiring about Probate services, we had a really useful face to face session which explained the process and the range of options available that TFS offered. Communication was good throughout the process and concluded in a good timescale.
