What is Probate extraction?

We can obtain the Grant of Probate on behalf of the named Executor if there is a Will or Administrator if there is no Will. This allows the Executor and Administrator to collect in funds, pay any outstanding debts and then distribute and/or transfer the assets to the beneficiaries.

  • Have an initial face to face consultation.
  • Ask the Executor or Administrator to complete a Fact Find, which will ask for key information about the deceased’s assets and debts at the date of death.
  • Use the Fact Find to prepare the paperwork for the Probate Registry and HMRC (as this is always required) for signature.
  • Submit the application to the Probate Registry.
  • Upon receipt of the Grant of Probate, we will send this to the Executor or Administrator to allow them to complete the process.
