Wills and Probate Solicitors in Sevenoaks
Wills and probate solicitors cover both estate planning and the legal work after a death. They draft wills, prepare lasting powers of attorney and set up trusts for children, a surviving partner or a vulnerable relative. Inheritance tax planning uses the nil-rate bands, the residence nil-rate band and lifetime gifts, which matters where property values are high.
When someone dies, solicitors can instruct formal valuations, report the estate for inheritance tax and apply for the grant of probate. They can answer questions from the tax authority and claim relief if a property later sells for less. Without a will, the estate needs letters of administration instead. The intestacy rules then decide who inherits. Solicitors collect the assets, pay debts and distribute the estate. A deed of variation can rearrange gifts within two years, and disputes over a will can often be settled by agreement.
Sevenoaks is a market town in west Kent, on the edge of the North Downs and surrounded by countryside. Wills and probate solicitors in Sevenoaks can draft wills, plan for inheritance tax and handle probate. Firms in Tonbridge, Westerham and Otford also serve the area.
