Wills and Probate Services

At Lone Solicitors we understand that financial affairs can be complicated and overwhelming at times. So why not let us help you to ensure your affairs are in place, so you have peace of mind that your estate is distributed in the way you wish.

Please note that your file may include disbursement, which must be paid separately from our cost. Disbursements are out of pocket expenses payable to third parties which incur because of you matter. For instance, disbursement may include Court fee, Probate application fee, Office of the public guardian fee, Gazette advert and/or Land Registry search. We offer our clients the option of either adopting the traditional hourly rates charging, or alternatively fixed-fee rates.
