Welcome. Do you need help administering a loved one’s estate?

We can help.

You don’t have to do it all by yourself. We can help! It’s not a problem seeking help and assistance and delegating some aspects of your loved one’s estate to a firm of specialist solicitors like ourselves. In fact, many people use solicitors to sort things out for them. If we can help you even just a little bit, then hopefully you can find some time and space and peace of mind so you can concentrate on more important things such as starting the grieving process and coming to terms with your loss.

We can offer a free, no-obligation chat. Simply call us on 0800 3 10 11 12 or 01536 276300 and ask for Adrian, James or Amanda. We would be delighted to discuss your situation with you.

At Seatons we are known as “the friendly professionals” and we care about you. We are here to provide a sympathetic, helpful and friendly service to help guide you through the legal complexities at this difficult time.

Lawyers can charge all sorts of different fees for the work they do. We at Seatons pride ourselves on providing low, sensible fees and giving good value for money. Compared with using other solicitors, banks or probate companies you will find our fees very competitive.

Where possible we try, and charge fixed fees. An indication of our basic fees are set out below.

For example, if all you require is to obtain a Grant of Probate for a simple estate with few assets and for you to deal with everything else, then we can charge a fixed fee of only £400 + vat + disbursements which overall comes to around £650 all in.

For dealing with the administration of a simple estate including obtaining a Grant of Probate and collecting assets in and paying off liabilities and then preparing estate accounts and distributing the estate to beneficiaries are usually from £1,000 + vat + disbursements which overall can come to around £1,500 all in.

With more complex estates please ring us and we would be delighted to give you a quote. We are very competitive and are confident we can beat most of our competitors.

We specialise in Probate and Estate Administration work. We are also a genuine firm of solicitors and are fully insured and regulated unlike many other probate firms you may come across on the internet. We have a “Lexcel Accreditation” which is a legal practice quality mark. We also have accreditations with the Law Society “Wills and Inheritance Quality Scheme” which is open only to solicitors who can demonstrate high levels of experience and expertise. We are also members of “Solicitors for the Elderly”.

We act for clients across England and Wales. Wherever you live we can help. We usually don’t need to meet up face to face and can often deal with most matters over the phone or by email.  However, if necessary with more complex estates we will travel to meet up with you. We also offer Skype conference calls.
