How to choose your probate support package

Our probate support packages make probate simpler and more cost-effective.

The right package for you will depend on whether:

  • you want us to fill in the probate paperwork for you
  • you need to submit additional tax forms
  • the deceased person left a valid Will


All our packages come with a 100% Money Back Guarantee if it's not the right package or we can't help you successfully apply for Confirmation.
