Wills & Probate

Wills & Probate

We have experienced and motivated teams dealing with the administration of estates, regardless of whether or not there is a Will. On your behalf we are able to calculate any tax due and help to minimise the liability as far as possible. If required, we will notify domestic suppliers of the death and arrange payment of outstanding accounts from the estate. We are able to deal with the sale of property arising from a death and will liaise with local authorities regarding Residential/Nursing Home fees.

Our services include:

• Wills
• Probate – the administration of deceased person’s estate
• Lasting Powers of Attorney
• Inheritance Tax and general tax planning and disputes
• Court of Protection related work
• Advising the elderly or their relatives on a wide range of legal issues including protection of property and assets.

We have teams available in Hanley, Tunstall and Cheadle. Each transaction is dealt with by an individual fee earner so that you will know who to contact when any queries arise.

Hanley – Peter Beresford, Stephen Marsden, Maureen Dodd, Emma Marrow
Tunstall – Chris Hopkin, Adele Shaw
Cheadle – Maureen Dodd
