Hi all
My father recently passed away and in his Will he left me his house. I understand that there will need to be a process of probate in order for the house to be transferred into my name.
My question is should I fill in the forms for probate myself or would it be wise to get a solicitor to do it for me.
A friend told me that probate is very straight forward and I have talked to a solicitor about the process in which he told me that his fees would be 1% of the full asset amount.
Would like to hear opionons on this particularly form anyone that was in a similar position and done the probate process themselves.
Thanks
