Peak Fire and Flood Reviews
TM Solicitors provided me with a first class service. My case was dealt with by Suzanne who was supportive, friendly and extremely efficient. She always made herself available to give advice. I would recommend this firm without hesitation.
I was dealing with my father's estate in England from Canada. I read many excellent reviews about TM Solicitors, and placed my trust in them. I was not disappointed, and they informed me about every step in the process, and always provided timely communication. Holly Phillips of TM Solicitors was an incredible resource. I highly recommend their services with regard to settling estates in England, particularly from a foreign country. Their fee was more than reasonable, was clearly stated, and it was taken out of the final settlement. Thank you for all your assistance. It was truly appreciated.
I have found Tim and the team to be very engaging, explain things in terms that non-legal experts can easily understand. They have always dealt with matters in a timely manner, and are regularly available to answer questions or support in any way they can.
After the death of my mother, who was a U.S. citizen with assets in the U.K., I contacted TM Solicitors to handle the UK Grant of Probate necessary to settle her estate. Everything was done efficiently and in a highly professional manner. My contact at TM Solicitors, Rebecca Sidebottom, did a super job. She always responded to questions promptly and was able to explain the process and keep me informed. The fees and charges were clear and reasonable. Obtaining a Grant of Probate from overseas can be an onerous and daunting process, however, TM Solicitors and Ms Sidebottom made sure everything was done with the minimum of stress. TM Solicitors did a very good job and I can highly recommend them.
TM Solicitors have completed the application for Probate and have Administered the Estate of my late Brother in Law very professionally and in a caring manner. My Wife and I would recommend TM Solicitors to anyone needing Legal Services within their scope of expertise. Many thanks to all concerned, especially Holly Philips.
Tim has been highly professional, efficient and friendly all the way through the probate process. He has updated and communicated with us on a regular basis and has been transparent about all costs/timescales/aspects. We would not hesitate to recommend him and his team to anyone looking for excellent service at a very competitive price. It was Tim's knowledge, helpfulness and integrity which made TM Solicitors stand out from other firms we had previously used. We wish them continued success.
I have recently had a sensitive probate matter to deal with and found TM Solicitors online. I am so glad I did.... Rebecca Sidebottom dealt with my case and I always felt that she was on my side. Nothing was too much trouble and she kept in touch with every development. She was understanding, caring and extremely efficient. I came away with the best possible outcome for my family and that was a direct result of Rebecca's work. I would recommend TM Solicitors without hesitation. Thank you very much for making a difficult time so much easier.
I would like to take this opportunity to say a very BIG THANK YOU to TM Solicitors, in particular Rebecca Sidebottom for the help and support which began nearly 2 years ago relating to my late sister's Estate. There have been many ups and downs over this period, but Rebecca has been very supportive in providing very good advice where needed. The ERYC were particularly difficult to get them to refund the Council Tax which was due to us, but Rebecca kept me informed all the way. I would highly recommend TM Solicitors to any of my family or friends. Trish
Tm Solicitors were an absolute joy to deal with in a time of of loss if one can put the two words in the same sentence ! They responded promptly to all emails and there was always somebody on the phone I could speak to when needed. All paperwork was sent promptly when needed. We also had probate to deal with in Ireland and Vicky went above and beyond to facilitate in getting all the relevant paperwork to Ireland. The fees were exactly as they quoted with no extra charges. I would not hesitate to recommend them...

UNDERSTANDING PROBATE
Hover To ExploreClick To Explore
Not Sure Where to Begin? You're Not Alone.
When someone close to you dies, you may suddenly find yourself named as an executor in their will or trying to work out what happens when there isn't one. Probate is the legal process that must be completed before an estate can be settled. Most people have never dealt with it before, and it can feel confusing and daunting.
We're here to answer your questions, explain exactly what needs to happen, and take as much or as little off your plate as you need.
What Exactly Is Probate?
Probate is the legal process followed after someone dies. It involves gathering the deceased's assets, settling any debts, and distributing what remains either according to their will or under the rules of intestacy if there is no will.
Before banks, building societies, or property registries release funds or transfer ownership, they need to see a legal document called a Grant of Probate (or Letters of Administration where there is no will). We apply for the grant on your behalf.
What Happens When There Is No Will?
When someone dies without leaving a will (known as dying "intestate"), the estate doesn't automatically pass to the next of kin. Instead, strict legal rules, known as the Intestacy Rules, determine who inherits what. The process can feel more complicated, but we guide you through every step.
In this situation, the person dealing with the estate is called an administrator (not an executor), and they must apply to the Probate Court for a document called Letters of Administration. We handle this application for you, just as we would a standard Grant of Probate.
We identify who is entitled to inherit under the Intestacy Rules.
We apply for Letters of Administration on your behalf.
We administer the estate and distribute it correctly in line with the law.
We help protect you from making costly mistakes that could expose you to personal liability.
