HOW WE CAN HELP

You may be a personal representative appointed under a Will faced with a claim by a disappointed family member. Or you may have expected to benefit under a Will only to find out that in fact you receive nothing.

There may be concerns over the validity of a will, or an individual who has enjoyed financial support during the deceased’s lifetime does not benefit under the Will.

Each case is fact specific and we can advise on which cases should be fought and which conceded with the emphasis on achieving cost-effective settlement without the need for Court proceedings.

And of course, you’ll benefit from the attention to detail for which Bell Park Kerridge is renowned, as well as our personal touch.

WHAT IT WILL COST

All families are different and no two contentious probate cases are the same. That’s why you need expert solicitors who will treat you as individuals and who will work with you and your family to get the outcome you need.

There are a number of ways of funding your case which we would be pleased to discuss in more detail, including hourly rates and fixed price quotations for agreed levels of investigation and advice.

A personal touch, attention to detail and expert solicitors on your side. Call our contentious probate team now on 01228 888999 or get in touch.
