Dealing with 2 family deaths was not a great experience. Contact with personnel has always been polite and professional. Thanks to Aoife for her help in the later stages.

Administering the Estate of somebody…
Administering the Estate of somebody following their death is not something that the majority of us get a lot of practice at. Following the death of my mother, Kings Court Trust (KCT) were recommended to me to undertake the task on my behalf. KCT offers a range of support, from the basic service of Obtaining a Grant of Probate through to a complete Estate Administration Service. You can choose which package you wish to buy. I chose the full Estate Administration Service as it gave me complete peace of mind that the task would be done professionally on my behalf. KCT did not disappoint. After an initial face to face meeting with one of their team, the appointed KCT Associate Personal Estate Manager (Chloe) handled everything from applying for probate through to distribution of funds to the beneficiaries. I would thoroughly recommend their service.
Kings Court Trust
Kings Court Trust (and in particular Wayne) are very easy company to deal with and offer excellent help and understanding, along with a professional, friendly and fully informed, speedy outcome.. I fully recommend dealing with them.
Probate
HT, my estate manager, provided me with regular updates on all the administration of the estate and was always available to help clarify any issues.
Worry Free at a Difficult Time
Everything was completed calmly and easily for me while dealing with my brother's estate. From the initial telephone call with Joanna, Gareth collecting the documentation and then Sophia Dowden dealing with everything after. Sophia kept in contact on a monthly basis with updates, and would always reply promptly to any emails I sent in with any questions and queries.
An excellent service received, and would recommend Kings Court to anyone who is unfortunate to lose someone close, and needs a hand to hold through a trying time.
In appreciation of Kings Court Trust
Kings Court Trust supported me with the probate and administration of my late wife’s estate, and I am very grateful for the service I received.
This was an emotional and unfamiliar process for me, but throughout, WB guided me with professionalism, patience and genuine kindness. He took the time to explain each step clearly, handled matters with care and respect, and was always reassuring when things felt overwhelming.
Communication was clear and thoughtful, and I always felt supported and kept informed. Knowing that everything was being managed properly gave me real peace of mind during a very difficult period.
I do not hesitate recommending Kings Court Trust to anyone needing Probate services.

Kings Court Trust has been a great company to deal with. Our personnel trust Manager Becky Flynn Has been very helpful and keeping us informed at all times. If I have had a problem, a quick phone call to Becky has soon been resolved
The service received was excellent
The service received was excellent. Although the settlement took a long time, this was due only to the delays of the house sale.
Connor Cogan took over our case when Hira went on maternity leave. Once everything was done, he personally pushed for the final funds to be released quickly, rather than the standard 7-10 days, as he knew this had dragged on a long time. I would absolutely recommend King's Court Trust to anyone needing estate management.
Thank you Connor.
When I was having trouble understanding…
When I was having trouble understanding any of the procedures, I was steered in the right direction by my Personal Estate Manager, Wayne Nobile. He took the time to answer even the most basic queries, which eased any worries that I had. A very efficient service. Documents returned promptly.
Problems with will.
I dealt with Izal Hussein,who i found to be helpful and informative.Thier were problems with my husbands will,but these were dealt with sympatheically and professionaly by Mr Hussein.
Probate service
The company provided service at what was a very upsetting time. From the initial phone call to the return of the documents and grant of probate it couldn't have been made any easier. From dealing with Holly, Stuart and my estate manager Ifzal.
Outstanding service from KC Trust
Initial contact was very informative and unrushed , in general everyone at KC Trust were helpful and patient with all of my dealings .Connor Cogan always kept to the schedule and responded promptly to any queries.
Kings Court Trust an exceptional service
Kings Court Trust were helpful, patient and knowledgeable throughout the bereavement and probate process. The guidance given by the Personal Estate Manager Megan Cooper was exceptional.
It would have been difficult to have completed without their support, competence and professionalism.
Very positive experience with Mariyam and the Kings Court team
Mariyam and the team at Kings Court made a very difficult period of my life much more manageable. Providing regular updates on the process and answering any questions I had in a swift manner. When it came to selling of property the companies they work with were reliable and extremely helpful whilst always feeling like they were on my side. Overall the probate process was a made far easier for me because of Mariyam and her team. Would recommend them to anyone who needs assistance in this matter.

Extremely helpful and pleasant staff
i always felt that I could contact the lady dealing with our case, if she was out when I telephoned or emailed there was
always a prompt reply explaining if there was a problem and regular friendly emails updating me on the situation. For various reasons there was a delay but Chloe Chappell handled
it beautifully and we are very grateful for all she Kings Court Trust did to bring it to a conclusion. Thank you

I would highly recommend Connor Cogan for his excellent caring service.
I would highly recommend Connor Cogan for his excellent service. I felt very confident in his ability as a personal estate manager. He completed the administration of my brother's estate in about 12 months. He always responded to my phone calls and kept me informed by emailing monthly progress reports. He made interim payments to beneficiaries while waiting several months for final response from the DWP.

Kings Court Trust
Kings Court Trust (KCT) specialises in probate and estate administration services. Having used their services after the death of a relative, I can highly recommend Kings Court Trust for their professional, efficient, and compassionate service.
We were provided with a Personal Estate Manager, Will Balman, who explained each stage of the process in simple terms. Communication was consistently clear and courteous, and overall, the process was very quick and efficient. I cannot recommend Will highly enough. Will and Kings Court Trust made a difficult period far more manageable. I would not hesitate to use their services again and would gladly recommend them to anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy probate and estate administration support at a very reasonable price.

Great friendly service.
It was a slow start as our initial Personal Estate Manager left the company.
I was then appointed WB as my new Personal Estate Manager.
From the first phone call Will Balman put me at ease, he was easy to talk to. Will explained the process and timeframes in a professional manner and was able to answer my queries efficiently. I was updated throughout the process and any queries I sent by email were promptly replied to with clear explanations.
Thank you Will for your support through this difficult time.
