Our Services

We can assist with a wide range of matters relating to wills and probate, including:

– Inheritance planning

– Will writing

– Deeds of variation

– Probate and estates

– Lasting Powers of Attorney

– Wills and Probate

When you pass away, there are various vital duties which need to be completed. The making of a Will is unexceptionally important, not least because it means that your chosen executors are given the responsibility of ensuring the tasks are carried out and that your wishes are respected. It also means that you will not be said to have died intestate. If this happens, it means that the appointment of the administrators of the estate will be decided by the Intestacy Rules. The people administering your estate may not be those who you would have chosen.

If you die without a Will, there is a danger that:

– Your children may be disinherited unintentionally.

– Your spouse might not inherit all that you want them to.

– Your family home may have to be sold.

– No guardian has been appointed for your young children.

– There may be no automatic entitlement for your unmarried partner or example stepchildren or friends.

The legal right to deal with a person’s estate – which includes their possesions, properties and money – upon their death can be applied for via a grant of representation, otherwise known as probate if a Will had been made or a Grant of letters of administration if the person had died intestate, without making a Will. At Haleys, we can provide all of the probate services you require.

Other areas of our practice

CRIMINAL APPEALS

If you have been convicted of an offence in the Magistrates’ Court, you have the right to appeal to the Crown Court within 21 days of the date of conviction. Appeals to the Crown Court are a complete re-hearing of the original trial with the same or other witnesses and evidence being given.

CRIMINAL LAW

At the core of our practice is our specialist knowledge and advocacy. We defend at all stages of the criminal process from pre-charge, through the Magistrates’ Court, the Crown Court, the Court of Appeal and the High Court.

IMMIGRATION

Immigration law and the rules governing visas change regularly and finding a qualified legal advisor can be a daunting experience. Our immigration team is made up of solicitors that have been highly recommended and ranked as top UK immigration lawyers.

ROAD TRAFFIC CASES

Being charged with a motoring offence can cause many complications for you and your family, alike personally and professionally. As a result, if you have been charged with a motoring offence, you need a specialist solicitor that can give you the best chance of procuring the best possible outcome.

ARREST, SEARCH & SEIZURE

A person’s arrest, the search of their premises and the seizure of their property can be hugely damaging. This is a niche area of law and we work closely with specialist counsel in seeking injunctive relief where necessary, and the appropriate remedies for the unlawful use of these intrusive powers.

RESTRAINT & FREEZING ORDERS

The power of the state to restrain or freeze assets has steadily increased, and become easier, over recent years. It may be an early step in a criminal investigation, or a power used instead of a criminal case. We have expertise in challenging asset freezing process in all environments.
