Carlisle Probate Solicitors

The time following the death of a loved one is always hard, but our Carlisle probate solicitors are here to help make things as easy as possible.

Completing probate involves many different stages and a lot of paperwork. Our lawyers make it their priority to shoulder as much of this burden as they can so you can focus on getting your life back together.

We will inform banks and other institutions which hold any assets, calculate the Inheritance Tax bill, settle any debts, and allocate the assets as directed in the Will. In short, we strive to make the whole process as pain free as we can.

As well as handling probate, our legal team can also assist with the following matters;

 Inheritance Tax

 Power of Attorney

Wills

We always encourage clients to write a Will. It may not seem important now, but dying without leaving a valid Will can mean a lot of unnecessary hard work and expense for the ones you leave behind.

Below are a few practical reasons why you might want to think about writing yours;

 Cohabiting couples do not automatically inherit as married couples or civil partners do

 It is your opportunity to decide who gets what, ensuring close friends or significant charities do not miss out

 With some careful planning it may be possible to mitigate your Inheritance Tax bill

 You can state who you wish to look after children or other dependents in the event of your death
