When my husband passed away it was the first time that I had to deal with confirmation and I didn’t have a clue where to start. I had spoken to a lawyer but the fees were very high. Then I found My Probate Partner online. Costs and service provided were clear and much more affordable than what I had been quoted from other companies. I would recommend them to anyone having to go through the confirmation process.

Lucy and the team worked very efficiently in preparing our documents for confirmation. In particular they advised on how to clarify the will, drafting court letters etc for us.

From start to finish, the team at My Probate Partner were an immense help. These guys have nailed this process, everything is very efficient, some automated communications and Sharon was an amazing case manager helping me through the entire process. Once I received all appropriate information with perfectly clear instructions on what to do next to prepare to submit to Sheriff Court, we submitted and received Grant of Confirmation from the Courts within 1 week. Overall the process only took 2 weeks...remarkable! I used a solicitor before with another deceased relative and it took 1 year and was three times the cost. I'd definitely recommend My Probate Partner.

I was initially dubious about using this service but after a hefty quote by a solicitor, decided to give it a try. The team are super responsive and knowledgeable and worth every penny. If you are able to contact organisations yourself, and manage some paperwork, this service will provide you with the expertise and confidence to work through the whole process. Our paperwork was accepted by court first time and we were able to finalise the estate in the quickest possible time. Highly recommend.

Returning customer says it all really.
Confirmation is not something a layman can do without professional help.
This service allowed me to complete the necessary task whilst avoiding the expense of a solicitor.
The service is clear and fairly easy to follow. If things get confusing you can contact your designated agent via email for help. They always answer promptly and personally. You’re dealing with human beings and not a computer program! And these people know what they’re doing.
Second time I’ve used their services and second successful outcome at first time of asking.
They are providing a necessary service for ordinary people and I have no hesitation in recommending My Probate Partner to all.

I honestly cannot thank the team at My Probate Partner enough. Their support, guidance and efficiency has been second to none with clear and detailed instructions every step of the way throughout this process. Nothing was too much trouble, documents were completed for us in the correct format required, emails were answered promptly, and they also took the time for phone calls when necessary without any extra charges. Our application for Confirmation was granted with no problems first time. I highly recommend their services and truly thank you for making an incredibly difficult time for us that little bit easier. Thank you!

From the initial telephone conversation with Mike to being granted Confirmation the whole experience with My Probate Partners was exceptional.
The process was broken into simple steps which were easy to understand and follow.
All documents and paperwork was provided and supported with relevant examples.
Special mention must be given to my Case Manager, Sharon who guided me through the process from start to finish and was always available.
I could not have been granted Confirmation with the initial application without the support and guidance provided by My Probate Partners, it is much appreciated.
The service My Probate Partners provided was clear, concise, professional and efficient.
I highly recommend My Probate Partners to anyone requiring exceptional support to navigate the complexities of applying for Confirmation during a difficult time.

Excellent customer care, when ever I sent an email they got back to me very quickly. Explained each and every step to me and my personal case manager Lucy was absolutely amazing.

Great service from start to finish. Very quick and efficient. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer friends and family members to Probate Partners. It took just a few weeks from start to finish. Highly recommended.

Reply from My Probate Partner
Our experience with My Probate Partner was excellent from start to finish. From an initial conversation with Mike to completion of the process with our case worker Lucy the support was professional, responsive and sympathetic.
We benefitted from both support in completing the necessary tax forms and confirmation documents as well as the preparation of a Deed of Variation.
The process could have been quite daunting but the service provided led us to a successful and highly cost effective conclusion.
Highly recommended.

When no one else is willing to help my probate partner makes completing the c1 forms so much simpler. Replies to any queries are prompt even in weekends. I can't rate them high enough, thanks to Lucy who checked my form. Well worth the money to have someone to take some of the stress away. Thank you..

Reply from My Probate Partner
Absolutely worth getting help from Probate Partner. Very straight forward and quick process which took a lot of stress away at a very difficult time. 100% recommend

Reply from My Probate Partner
Excellent service from the initial phone call to receiving the approved confirmation from the sheriff's office.
My case manager, Sharon, was always helpful, efficient and quick to respond to any questions I had. This took away any stress associated with the application and was much preferable to dealing with a solicitor. I also felt more in control of the whole process a I could do it at my own pace and could follow every step.
I was a total novice at the beginning of this process and could not have done it without their professional support.

Reply from My Probate Partner
Very friendly and efficient staff. Our contact, Lucy, was excellent and followed up everything with us to ensure everything was going to as expected, We had tried to manage the court ourselves, without sucess, and were really happy with myprobate partners support to finally obtain a sucessful outcome

Reply from My Probate Partner
Very fast, very clear, responded to my questions almost immediately. Sheriff Court were very impressed and got Confirmation in under two weeks.
I would never, ever, have been able to do this myself and I would have gone through multiple rejections before getting it done.
And all for 25% of what a solicitor quoted me for a minimum fee.

Reply from My Probate Partner
Very prompt and accurate responses, covering every detail, and a successful outcome after months of worry trying to do it for myself without help. And considerably cheaper than standard solicitor fees.

As I'm sure other reviewers have mentioned, the duties of an executor weigh heavily so soon after losing your loved one. There's often no clear indication of how to deal with the formalities apart from the shared experience of others. My brother and I assumed we would instruct a solicitor and, with no obvious choice, we thought we'd go with the solicitor that our Mum had used to draw up her Will. That was until we found out how much it was going to cost. £3000 + VAT (so £3600) PLUS 3% of the value of the estate. Even our Mum's modest estate (mostly the value of her house) would've landed us with a bill of around £11000! I did some 'shopping around' on the internet and every solicitor seemed to indicate fees around the same ballpark. Then I saw My Probate Partner on Google and followed the link and was so glad I did. I'm naturally very sceptical about unconventional methods (i.e, in our case not using a solicitor) but after checking out MPP's Trustpilot page, I was sure we could put our trust (and a LOT less money) in them. I had never seen a company with ALL 5-star reviews - 371 of them when I first checked them out and I use Trustpilot a lot. Safe to say my brother and I are very happy with the service we received from MPP. We chose the Enhanced Package, so the C1 paperwork was prepared by MPP for us to check and then submit to the Sheriff Court. Confirmation was granted at the first attempt and in the timescale we'd been advised to expect. My brother and I can't recommend My Probate Partner highly enough. There will always be complex estates that have to use the services of a solicitor but we reckon for most situations, MPP will be able to support you through the arcane process of applying for Confirmation without wiping out half of your inheritance!
