Probate
Probate means a legal authentication of a will, which is usually necessary to persuade Banks and Building Societies to pay out money following a person’s death. Probate authorises the Executor to deal with the affairs of someone who has died. Obtaining probate is just one of many ways in which Latimer Hinks can help you following a death.We can contact all the relevant Banks, Building Societies, Insurance Companies, government departments and creditors for you.
We can deal with any necessary Inheritance Tax and Income Tax matters, property and share valuations and sales, and any debts that need to be cleared.
We can even arrange the funeral for you if you wish, though we appreciate that most families prefer to handle this themselves.
You can come to us for help with any or all of these matters, as you choose.
