What we handle
Making a will is the start. Keeping it useful is the rest.
We draft wills for parents, homeowners, single people, blended families, and farming families. We also review old documents, talk through capacity concerns, and store the result in a way that makes sense for the client.
Simple is best.
Review and storage
We recommend a review after marriage, birth, separation, or a major change in assets.
Capacity advice
Where a testator is elderly or unwell, we deal with capacity issues properly and with care.
Estate planning notes
We set out executors, specific gifts, and practical steps so the family is not left guessing.
Enduring Power of Attorney and capacity
An enduring power of attorney lets a trusted person help manage affairs if you can no longer do it yourself. We explain the form, the sign-up process, and the points that usually cause delay.
EPA
We explain who can be appointed, what powers are sensible, and how to keep the document practical for family use.
Capacity
We deal with decision-making concerns in line with the current legal framework and the facts in front of us.
Fair Deal support
We prepare the documents needed for nursing home support applications and help families keep records in order.
Paperwork ready
We tell you what to sign, who should witness, and what to keep.
Careful timing
A good EPA is done before a crisis starts.
Probate and estate administration
Executors need facts, not noise.
We guide executors through probate applications, bank queries, property transfers, tax papers, and the final distribution. If the estate is straightforward, we keep it moving. If it is tangled, we set out the next step in plain terms.
1. Review the papers
We check the will, death certificate, assets, liabilities, and executor details.
2. Apply for probate
Court forms and Revenue paperwork are prepared with care.
3. Deal with third parties
Banks, property agents, and local offices get the documents they need.
4. Complete the estate
We help with distributions, accounts, and final sign-off.
Agricultural and farm succession
A family farm needs a plan that fits the land and the people on it.
We advise on farm succession, life interests, partnership arrangements, and tax-aware structures. The aim is simple. Keep the holding workable and reduce the room for conflict.
Transfer planning
The farm can move in a way that keeps work on the ground moving.
Tax and duty points
We flag reliefs and timing issues before papers go out.
Family discussions
We keep the talk practical and focused on what can be agreed.
Farm disputes need early handling.
When siblings, tenants, or successors disagree, waiting makes the split harder to fix.
Inheritance disputes and contested probate
If a will is challenged, the first job is to stop the drift.
We act in disputes about capacity, undue influence, faulty execution, section 117 claims, executor conduct, and removal applications. Mediation comes first where it can work. Court comes next when it has to.
Act early.
Validity challenges
We look at capacity, pressure, and signing formalities.
Mediation first
A direct talk can settle a dispute before legal costs rise.
Executor issues
We address delay, missing accounts, and removal where needed.
Court action
If the papers do not settle it, we prepare the case properly.
Plan with confidence
Tell us what you want to happen, and we will set out the next step.
Speak with D&F Tyrrell Partners about a will, probate matter, enduring power of attorney, elder law question, or a family succession issue. Home visits can be arranged for elderly clients where needed.
Keep it in order.
