College Chambers

Wills & Probate

Our team offers an all round advice and advocacy service in respect of cases involving wills, probate and the Inheritance (Provision for Family & Dependants) Act 1975. Members will assist in the drafting of claims and applications, provide written opinions and assist in negotiations and mediation.

Our team manage the whole spectrum of cases, including contentious and non-contentious probate claims, applications to the court to deal with personal representatives and the administration of estates and applications under the 1975 Act for financial provision. We offer advice and representation to estates as well as beneficiaries or interested parties.

Our barristers are well known to be approachable, friendly and compassionate particularly when dealing with vulnerable and sensitive clients. Equally, they bring to each case expert knowledge, polished presentation and firm negotiation skills which are thorough, effective and steadfast.

College Chambers can offer clients round table meetings and alternative dispute resolution services.
