Kent
Tonbridge is a historic market town on the River Medway in Kent, with a castle, an internationally renowned school, and a community that has grown steadily through its popularity as a commuter base for London. GLCS Probate Services advises Tonbridge clients on wills, probate and lasting powers of attorney from our Gatwick office, with appointments available by phone or video throughout the week.

Tonbridge sits within the Tonbridge and Malling district of Kent and is surrounded by attractive countryside and villages. The town itself has excellent rail connections to London Bridge and Cannon Street, making it a popular base for London professionals who prefer the space and quality of life that Kent offers. Many of our Tonbridge clients have lived in the area for decades and are at the stage of life where getting their legal affairs properly ordered is a priority.
We draft Wills for Tonbridge clients that cover all the essential provisions and any more complex requirements that may arise from the client's circumstances. We advise on who should be named as executor, how to handle property that is owned jointly, and whether any of the estate should be held in trust for minor or vulnerable beneficiaries. We also advise on how a Will should be updated following major life events such as marriage, divorce, or the birth of a grandchild.
For probate matters in Tonbridge, applications are submitted through the HMCTS online service and any court hearings for contentious matters would typically be at the Maidstone Combined Court Centre. We manage the full administration of estates in this area, from valuing assets and completing HMRC forms to liaising with financial institutions and distributing the estate once the Grant of Probate has been obtained.
Lasting Powers of Attorney are registered with the Office of the Public Guardian. We prepare both the property and financial affairs LPA and the health and welfare LPA, and we take care to explain each document clearly before the client signs. The OPG registration process currently takes around 20 weeks, which is why we encourage Tonbridge clients to act in good time.
We are CLC-regulated, fixed-fee, and personally invested in every client's outcome. Call 01293 804 665 for a free initial conversation today.
