Probate solicitors in Dunstable

Dunstable executors can arrange an appointment at our Luton office to review liabilities before making distributions. Start with mortgages, statements and bills, but also look for less obvious obligations such as guarantees or outstanding business liabilities.

The estate must account for debts, expenses and tax before the remaining funds are distributed. If there may not be enough money to pay every liability, obtain advice before choosing which creditor to pay; an insolvent estate needs particular care.

Statutory notices can provide protection against certain unknown creditors, but they do not remove debts you already know about or all risks of claims. We explain what checks and notices are appropriate and help you decide when a distribution can safely be considered.

Appointments at our Luton office, or by phone or video. We serve Dunstable; this is not a separate office address.

Luton office: Victory House, Chobham Street, Luton LU1 3BS. Contact us to arrange your appointment before travelling. Bring the will if you have it, the death certificate and the asset information already available.
