Getting help with probate

Being the Executor or Personal Representative of an estate can be complex, challenging and very time consuming.

Furthermore, the role is, by its very nature, often taken on by individuals who are themselves grieving the loss of a loved one, perhaps whilst also trying to manage their own work and family commitments.

For all of these reasons, working with a trusted estate administration professional can be a big help.

An administrator will, for an agreed price, do most of the work of managing the estate so that the Executor or Personal Representative doesn’t have to. This can include contacting the relevant government departments, selling assets, paying any debts and, ultimately, distributing inheritances to beneficiaries.

Furthermore, appointing a qualified firm to administer the estate is a key requirement in order to qualify for any of our loans. This means that by working with a specialist administrator, Executors will have access to our Estate Advance loans, whilst also enabling beneficiaries who don’t want to wait for their inheritances to access an Inheritance Advance.

We have teamed up with a panel of experienced firms to support our customers, all of whom we have assessed to offer a high-quality service at a fair price.
