Do you need a Power of Attorney?
A Lasting Power of Attorney “LPA” is a legal document used for forward planning. It allows you to choose someone you trust “Attorney” to make decisions for you, as it may concern your property and financial affairs, or a Health and Welfare “LPA” enables you to choose the person or persons, you would wish to make personal decisions on your behalf, in such circumstances, this would include decisions about medical treatment or care, or where you should live.
There is a misconception that an “LPA” only applies to the elderly, or terminally ill; this is incorrect. It is wise for everyone, of any age and capacity to have one in place to cover any possible eventuality.
If you no longer have the mental capacity to look after your own affairs, and you do not have an “LPA” in place, the Court of Protection will appoint a Deputy to manage your affairs for you. This may not necessarily be a person who you chose, and can be costly, lengthy and sometimes cumbersome.

Expert Power of Attorney Specialists
All our specialists work to the highest sector standards, closely monitored by solicitors who are independently regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority (SRA).
How do we compare to solicitor fees on the high street?
On average, it costs about £1,400 to obtain both lasting powers of attorney in the UK for one person. But by using our service you can save as much as 60% in unnecessary solicitor fees.
Here are the top three ways we help you save money:
Fixed Fee Quote
We don’t believe in charging on an hourly basis, so we always offer a fixed-fee quote upfront. This helps make sure there are no hidden costs or surprises to our clients during your power of attorney application.
Transparent Service
Power of attorney fees are often higher on the high street because people end up being sold that only solicitors can do all the work. We can offer this also but the price increases per case.
Case Management
Our power of attorney specialists handle everything over the phone for you and deal with all the paperwork on your behalf. This means there’s no need to travel to solicitors' offices, all meetings are completed on video.
CUSTOMER REVIEWS
My mum dying suddenly of double heart failure, I was suddenly plunged into the world of probate that I, like many, know nothing about. Trying to grieve, I had to navigate lots of conflicting information regarding the probate procedures, my local solicitors wanted to charge astronomical amounts for quite a simple inheritance, me being an only child and beneficiary. After googling around and speaking to various companies I luckily found Probate Specialist. From the moment i spoke to Stephen, I knew he was experienced and he really started to put my mind at ease, he listened first patiently and then gave his analysis of my situation, talked me though the process and was very honest about government deadlines, waiting times and things to look out for. Probate specialist really know their stuff, they always get back to you promptly, their online portal and systems work really well, giving you the transparency of seeing your documents and what stage you are in. My main bugbear of the probate world is, there are so many companies massively profiting by taking advantage of grieving people and their lack of knowledge of this industry and believe me this is a huge industry. Stephen and his team are very compassionate and they charge a very fair price and you really feel like this is an honest company with integrity. I don’t normally write reviews, but I felt compelled to, as the probate world is very complex in some cases, but usually like my situation it is fairly straight forward and you find your local solicitors are charging ridiculous sums of money and tbh ripping people off. Companies like this one are a diamond in the rough and I have no hesitation in wholeheartedly recommending Probate Service, you won’t be disappointed
Very reasonably priced. Stephen supported me all the way through with excellent advice and removed all the stress in the process. Contractually all Probate Specialist Limited's duties were to gain probate, but Stephen continues offer help and support - going above and beyond. Very highly recommended.
Stephen supplied great advice and delivered the whole probate service on time and on budget. The website is well designed and keeps the customer in the loop and engaged
Very rarely do you feel that somebody is really on your side. Stephen and his team did everything they could to help me overcome the bureaucracy at an emotionally difficult time. They are trying to make the process as simple as possible, cutting out the stupidities of the outdated law around inheritance and death duties.
Stephen was consistently helpful, informative, friendly and incredibly efficient. We thoroughly recommend Probate Specialists to help you avoid unnecessary stress or expense when navigating your way through the probate process.
PSL are true experts in their field. The process was complex but PSL made the process easier to understand and manage. Efficient and professional at all times.
Stephen helped with every aspect of the application and his knowledge was invaluable. We managed to get the forms uploaded and application sent on the same day. Stephen knows what can delay the process and was on hand to offer invaluable insights and advice. He was available when called and responded promptly to emails and messages. I would recommend him because he clearly knows his stuff and will get it done efficiently as long as you provide what is needed
I knew what Probate was but had no idea of the detail involved. To have all my questions answered (even at the weekend) and all paperwork completed on my behalf make the process tolerable and almost a pleasure at a difficult time.
I initially started doing the probate application myself and quickly realised I was out of my depth. Stephen and his team provided a professional, streamlined and faultless service, just when I needed help most. I can’t recommend Probate Specialists Ltd highly enough. Thank you
The application for Probate during a difficult time can seem daunting. The service provided by Stephen was exemplary. From start to completion the process was made simple,. He is always available to assist in gathering the required documentation, he completes the process in quick time. I have no hesitation in recommending his services.
Mr Stephen Jameson made what is a very complicated procedure look easy. All the pressure on the family at a time of bereavement was taken away with the ease of conversation with Stephen, every hiccup we encountered was explained in detail to us with patience and calmness. He was always readily available and would call back promptly. Our probate was granted thanks to the diligence and professionalism of a company we would highly recommend to anyone looking to negotiate the road to probate.
Such a wonderful service, efficient, professional and caring. Stephen was so lovely to talk to and was very patient and making sure I understood the process.
Fantastic, Stephen took all the stress away from me. After initially consulting a solicitor I was so stressed and the bill was going to be ridiculous. One phone call to Probate Specialist Limited and felt so relieved. Everything was explained simply, the time scale just as he said and the charge was excellent! I cannot recommend them enough! Many thanks for all the help and understanding. Will definitely be passing their number on to anyone in the same position!
Highly Recommend- very professional and knowledgable and easy to deal with using their on line system and phone consultation. I’m so glad I didn’t try and navigate the probate system myself when Stephen and the team can get it done and offer value for money. Excellent service
Excellent Service
Excellent from start to finish. Very professional and compassionate at a difficult time. Stephen is a gentleman who does his best to get it done as hassle free as possible. Definitely lucky to have found Probate Specialist.
Excellent service and advice from Stephen. Made this daunting process simple. Would thoroughly recommend.
Excellent communications keeping us informed and the probate was completed on time.
On accessing the help of this Company for further matters relating to probate, I am so very pleased to say that once again, I was delighted with the Service provided by Stephen. As before, he was incredibly helpful and meticulous in the way everything was handled. It is clear to me that he is passionate about trying to help people through challenging circumstances and he always strives to do the best that he can. Probate Specialists are extremely efficient, honest and dependable and I can recommend this Company to others with complete confidence.
Would happily recommend this company. Very thorough efficient and professional. Sympathetic at a difficult time.
The service and support provided by Stephen has been absolutely first rate and I am more than satisfied. I would recommend and I will be using again in the future.
Just wanted to say thank you for help dealing with my Dad's probate, it made a difficult time for me and my sister less stressful, and I would thoroughly recommend your services, many thanks
Excellent service. Stephen was always available to help and talk you through this process. I would use this company again
Stephen so helpful, nice to be able to talk on phone to sort out any questions I had.
Best Probate service in UK. The most cost effective probate guys out there which was what initially drew me in. Throughout the entire process of my probate Stephen has been amazing, he's kept me informed with communication even provided outside of office hours and hes taken ownership of my probate task ensuring it was completed even though the courts were causing delays. The guidance and professionalism is way beyond what you would expect and the overall service is even better than what's offered by top 'by the book' solicitors. Thank you so much!
People say that you can apply for probate on your own. This may be true, but I expected to go round in circles, and make lots of mistakes, wasting a lot of time. The solicitor quoted £5,000 upwards to apply. So I looked online, and found Probate Specialist Ltd. What a fantastic find! Stephen is highly competent, has a process set up which is extremely straightforward, and he communicates regularly to ensure everything is on track. There were no delays at all in the process, and because my father's estate was simple, probate was granted within 6 weeks of his death, which is extraordinary. I hope I don't have to use his services again (for obvious reasons), but cannot recommend him enough if you are in need of help applying for probate.
I attempted to complete the Inheritance Tax form and apply for probate myself following my sister’s passing. It was a very difficult time and I found the IHT form to be incredibly confusing and virtually impossible to complete. I therefore contacted Probate Specialist Ltd and spoke to Stephen, asking if he could help me. I had a telephone appointment and answered a number of very straightforward questions. No form filling on my part, I just had to check the info that Stephen had recorded. He even arranged for couriers! It really was as simple as that. A super company, and Stephen is delightful - very friendly and easy to talk to. He made the really devastating experience of losing my sister a little more bearable especially when there is so much to deal with upon losing a loved one. I cannot recommend P.S. Ltd highly enough.
