Our services
We understand that losing a loved one is an incredibly difficult experience. During this emotional time, the burden of administrative tasks can feel overwhelming. Talking Wills can help ease your stress by providing compassionate and professional guidance through the estate administration process.

One of the most common concerns we hear is the misconception that a Will eliminates all post-death tasks. Another frequent question is ‘What happens next?’
We understand that creating a Will is a thoughtful way to ensure your loved ones are cared for after you’re gone. A Will appoints trusted individuals, called Executors, to manage your estate and distribute your assets according to your wishes.
While a Will provides a foundation for a smooth transition, it’s important to consider additional steps if your estate value exceeds £5,000.

FAQS
Probate is the legal process of administering the estate of someone who has passed away. This involves identifying the deceased’s assets, settling any debts, and distributing the remaining inheritance according to the Will (if there is one) or following the rules of intestacy (if there is no Will).
If you die without a Will, your estate will be distributed according to the rules of intestacy. This can lead to unintended consequences and may not reflect your wishes for your beneficiaries.
The probate process can vary depending on the complexity of the estate. It typically takes between 6 months and a year to complete. However, this is just a guide line and cannot be entirely established until the size of the estate is taken into account.
It’s possible to handle probate yourself, but it can be a complex and time-consuming process. Talking Wills recommends seeking professional guidance, especially for larger or more complex estates. Our team can help ensure the process is completed efficiently and accurately.
If you’re unsure whether you need probate or require assistance navigating the process, Talking Wills is here for you. We offer compassionate and professional guidance throughout the estate administration. Contact us today for a free consultation.
