Miss Kirk was friendly, very reassuring and has a wealth of knowledge. Things were made even easier as she visited us twice at home, dealing with and delivering all completed documents swiftly.

Liverpool Wills & Estate Planning FAQs
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO MAKE A WILL WITH A SOLICITOR IN LIVERPOOL?
The cost of making a Will with a solicitor in Liverpool depends on how simple or complex your wishes are. At Liberay Legal, we provide clear, upfront pricing so you know exactly what to expect before you begin, with no hidden surprises.
DO I NEED A LIVERPOOL-BASED SOLICITOR TO WRITE MY WILL?
You don’t legally need a Liverpool-based solicitor to write your Will, but working with someone based nearby can make the process more straightforward. It also means you can easily get support in person if you prefer it.
DO LIVERPOOL PROPERTIES ATTRACT INHERITANCE TAX?
Inheritance tax depends on the total value of your estate, not just whether you own property in Liverpool. If your estate exceeds the available thresholds, tax may be due regardless of location, so planning ahead is important.
HOW LONG DOES PROBATE TAKE IN LIVERPOOL?
Probate in Liverpool typically takes several months, depending on the complexity of the estate and how quickly assets can be valued and released. Straightforward cases may be completed faster, but delays can occur if there are multiple assets or complications.
WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEONE DIES WITHOUT A WILL IN LIVERPOOL?
If someone dies without a Will in Liverpool, their estate is distributed according to intestacy rules. This means the law decides who inherits, which may not reflect personal relationships or family circumstances.
MY FAMILY MEMBER HAS JUST PASSED AWAY IN LIVERPOOL - WHAT DO I DO FIRST?
The first step is to register the death and obtain the necessary death certificate. From there, you may need to start dealing with the estate, which can include sorting finances, property and any legal responsibilities.
CAN I SET UP A LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY IN LIVERPOOL WITHOUT VISITING A LONDON FIRM?
Yes, you can set up a Lasting Power of Attorney in Liverpool without needing to use a London-based firm. At Liberay Legal, we work locally and can guide you through the process in a way that suits you, whether in person or remotely.
CAN I UPDATE MY WILL IF MY CIRCUMSTANCES CHANGE?
Yes, you can update your Will in Liverpool if your circumstances change, such as marriage, children or changes in assets. It’s important to review it regularly to make sure it always reflects your current wishes.
