Best Business Law Practitioners in Glasgow

Applying for Confirmation in Scotland Our Scottish probate & executry solicitors, based in Glasgow, can help you through the process of applying for confirmation. If you have recently lost someone close to you, you may find yourself appointed as an 'Executor'. An executor is a person responsible for winding up the deceased's estate and distributing the assets. 'Confirmation' is the Scottish term for what is known in England & Wales as "Grant of probate". You don't, however, have to deal with this alone. We are here to help: our Estate Administration team provide the necessary legal services and expert legal advice to help you wind up the deceased's estate as quickly as possible. From obtaining confirmation and dealing with the courts to distributing the estate, our executry & probate solicitors are with you every step of the way. Applying for confirmation can seem daunting, even if you have done it before. The process of valuing the estate and having that confirmed by the court can be complex and it can be difficult to know where to start. Gathering information from insurance companies, banks, and building societies and compiling other financial evidence regarding the estate can be time-consuming. Our Confirmation-only service helps you handle the initial administrative aspects of winding up your loved one’s estate. We will help you identify and value the estate and fill in the relevant forms, including Form C1 and Form IHT 200, if necessary.
