Testimonials

 Having to deal with my sister's death and starting the probate process was extremely difficult. This Let's Do Probate Kit really helped me deal with probate and the support team were really kind and helpful when I called needing additional help. I can't recommend this highly enough!"
- Brian Caldew (Nov 2020)
  I looked at some other books and kits to help do probate myself, but found the Let's Do Probate Kit to be really helpful and written in plain English - I also liked the fact that it was specifically updated for use during the COVID crisis."  

- Peter Patrick (Jan 2021)
  Fiona (Let's Do Probate Kit) had previously given us some guidance on a couple of other semi-legal matters, so we were delighted when she produced this probate kit. It came in very handy when our elderly Aunt died and we needed help with probate and inheritance tax. Many thanks Fiona."



- W J McCormick (Dec 2020)
  I looked online for advice on whether I could do probate myself – I wasn’t sure as I have no legal background and thought it might be really complicated. However I found your site and downloaded the Let's Do Probate Kit quickly and easily so got started reading what I needed to do straight away. Found the kit really easy to use and very interesting. Have submitted my Inheritance Tax paperwork and hope to have probate done in the next 8 weeks (fingers crossed)."

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

   Do I Need To Apply For Probate?

If the deceased left assets in their sole name with a total value of more than £5,000 then you will usually need to obtain a Grant of Probate (if there is a will) or Letters of Administration (if no will or no valid will).

   When Is This  Let's Do Probate Kit Suitable For Use?

You can use this DIY Probate Kit to do probate yourself, if at the date of death, the deceased:  
•  Lived in England or Wales and had no overseas assets.
• Their total assets did not exceed £1,000,000.
• Did not make any gifts or transfer any assets of more than  £150,000 in total value, 
    in the 7 years prior to their death.
• The value of their estate is below the current Inheritance Tax threshold (£325,000 currently)

   When Should I Use A Solicitor?

If there is are any disputes,  if there is a large extended family, a business or foreign property involved, or if there are  insufficient assets to pay all of the debts  or a significant amount of money. Also if there are complex inheritance tax calculations required and substantial inheritance tax to pay.

   How Much Does Probate Cost Through A Solicitor?

On average you can expect to pay £5,000 – £6,000 + VAT for an average sized straightforward estate. Solicitors will usually charge an hourly rate typically £150 - £300 per hour plus an additional  fee typically 0.5% to 1.5% of the value of the estate and then there's 20% VAT on top of that.  Because they charge on an hourly basis solicitors have an incentive to make the work last as long as possible. Banks typically charge a percentage of the estate (around 4%).

  How Long Does Probate Typically Take?

It can range from 6 - 10 weeks to 12 months and longer, depending on the complexity of the will and estate, for example if there are family disputes and inheritance tax is due etc. The simpler the will and estate, the quicker it is typically to deal with HMRC and get probate granted.

  How Difficult Is The Inheritance Tax & Probate Paperwork To Do?

The process is fairly straightforward but there are legally required timelines for submission of Inheritance Tax paperwork to HMRC (Revenue & Customs) before you can apply for Probate. If the value of the deceased's estate is under £325,000 then there is typically no inheritance tax to pay and the paperwork if far simpler to complete. 

   Can I Use This Kit If There Is No  (Valid) Will?

If there is no (valid) will, then the process for applying to become the Administrator (rather than Executor) of an estate is similar and you would apply for Letters of Administration rather than Probate. Despite the different names for the different processes, they are essentially the same process. The Letters of Administration process is also included in the DIY Probate Kit, so yes you can use this kit if there is no (valid) will.
