Executry Solicitor Glasgow Scotland






Relieving the Stress on Your Shoulders When A Loved One Dies
What is an Executor responsible for? – Executries
In Scotland, an executor is the person in charge of managing an estate. With their expertise in winding up estates, our executry solicitors in Edinburgh and Glasgow can provide executry services to help you with as much of the process as you need, which can relieve a lot of your burden and stress when a loved one dies.
We recognise that after losing a loved one, you don’t want to deal with all the required legal paperwork, especially when it comes to probate (known as Confirmation in Scotland) matters. However, some legal requirements must be met, and it is our responsibility to help you navigate them as swiftly and painlessly as possible.
We can assist you with several problems, such as:
- Winding up the estate
- Grant of confirmation
- Inheritance tax
- Valuing the estate

Is an executor solicitor necessary?
You are not obligated to appoint a solicitor to represent you in the administration of the estate as an executor. You can manage all administrative tasks independently.
Executry solicitors in Edinburgh and Glasgow
Our specialised private client solicitors can assist with estate administration, including appointing an executor in the absence of a will, creating a list of the estate’s assets and liabilities, and securing the court’s approval for the executor to handle the estate’s affairs and distribute it to the beneficiaries.
However, depending on the number of beneficiaries and the quantity and value of assets in the estate, this can be a difficult and time-consuming operation. It would also be wise to seek professional legal counsel from solicitors in Edinburgh if there are any complicated matters, such as trust provisions in the will or legal rights claims made by the deceased person’s children. If you decide to appoint a solicitor to give you estate-related advice, you can decide with them which parts of the estate administration they will handle for you. There are some things you might decide to handle on your own.
You can talk to our executry solicitors at Complete Clarity about how much of the estate administration you want us to handle.
