Applying for a Grant of Probate is something that we assist with if there is a Will. It is sometimes time consuming and complicated, so at a difficult time, let us help you. We can get valuations of the assets of the estate including property and bank accounts, investments and savings, deal with liabilities of the estate, complete all of the necessary tax forms, preparing Oaths and applying to the Probate Registry on your behalf.
Once the Grant of Probate is obtained, we can administer the assets of the estate according to the Will.
Navigating the probate process can be challenging, especially during a time of grief. At T.G. Collins Solicitors, we offer expert assistance to ensure that the administration of the deceased’s estate is handled with care and precision. Whether dealing with a will or handling cases where there is no will, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.
One of the critical aspects of probate is managing inheritance tax. We assist in the completion and submission of necessary tax forms, including the IHT 205 tax form for simpler estates and the IHT 400 tax form for more complex cases. Our experts will help you understand the inheritance tax threshold, ensuring compliance and optimising your tax liabilities.
Maximising the nil rate band and residence nil rate band can significantly impact the amount of inheritance tax due. Our solicitors provide thorough advice on how to best utilise these allowances, ensuring that your loved ones benefit fully from the available tax reliefs.
For those handling the estate of a deceased loved one, obtaining letters of administration or a grant of probate is essential. T.G. Collins Solicitors will assist you through the probate registry process, ensuring all legal requirements are met promptly and efficiently.
If you are named as an executor in a will, or if you are a beneficiary of an estate, our solicitors offer clear guidance on your roles and rights. We help executors fulfil their duties correctly and ensure beneficiaries receive what is rightfully theirs.

They were always approachable throughout the process and offer competitive rates. We had a minor pricing issue just prior to completion but overall we were satisfied and would recommend them to others. Auli Tuomi2025-02-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently completed a very complicated sale of a leasehold property and I wish to thank Mindi and Aryan and the whole team at T.G.Collins for their tireless efforts to resolve all the problems faced. Their professionalism, friendliness and patience were second to none. All the team members are approachable, any email enquiries were always answered promptly and unlike many solicitors' practices you can actually pick up the phone and talk to your case handler. Their fees are very reasonable, too. I would happily instruct them again and recommend them without any hesitation. Terry Manton2025-02-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazingly helpful and knowledgeable on my situation. Very quick with their correspondence and very understanding at all times. I would use their services again for any future requirements that I have without question.

Very happy with the service this firm provides. Delilah Morenas-Jones2025-02-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We engaged T.G. Collins Solicitors to write our wills. From the very first contact with Taylor Ellmore (Trainee Solicitor) we felt relaxed and confident that we were receiving sound advice. Taylor guided us through the process and explained everything clearly. We thought it was going to be a difficult process but Taylor made it feel easy. She was able to answer all our questions and was at hand when we needed information and clarification. She was very professional but had a very personal touch which made us feel at ease. Our decision to opt for T.G. Collins was because of Taylor. We would have no hesitation in recommending Taylor Ellmore/T.G. Collins Solicitors.
