Losing a loved one is challenging, and dealing with probate can add unnecessary stress. Whether the deceased lived in the UK with assets in multiple countries or resided abroad with assets in the UK, probate matters can quickly become complex. At IMD Solicitors, we’re here to make the process smooth and manageable, helping you every step of the way.

What is Probate?

Probate is the legal process of administering a deceased person’s estate, which involves obtaining a Grant of Representation to manage assets and settle debts. When assets span multiple countries, the process becomes even more intricate, requiring expertise in both UK and international laws.

Deceased Lived in the UK with Assets in the UK and Abroad

If your loved one lived in the UK but held assets abroad, IMD Solicitors can:

• Obtain the UK Grant of Representation to deal with assets in the UK and overseas.

• Liaise with international legal teams to manage foreign assets efficiently.

• Handle inheritance tax and estate administration to ensure compliance and reduce complications.

Deceased Lived Abroad but Held Assets in the UK

If your loved one lived abroad but had assets in the UK, IMD Solicitors can:

• Obtain the UK Grant of Representation for UK-based assets.

• Work with foreign solicitors to ensure smooth cross-border probate administration.

• Advise on UK tax liabilities and fully manage the UK estate for you.
