Phillip Weston

Hello, my name is Philip Weston & I am the founder of Berkeley Weston Ltd, publishers of the DIY Probate Pack. I am a former legal adviser and probate practitioner with 21 years experience. I founded the business in 2004 to help consumers overcome tricky legal problems without spending a fortune on solicitor’s fees.

As well as having a substantial online presence, we are a real “bricks and mortar” business, with our HQ based here in Leicester. My private clients are welcome to visit our offices by appointment.

The aim of my website site is to help consumers obtain probate quickly and easily, by providing the right tools and support.

 

Why

I started providing the DIY Probate Pack to satisfy a huge consumer demand. My colleagues and I were taking hundreds of calls a month from consumers seeking advice how deal with probate themselves without getting a solicitor involved.

Most people contacted us for help because they wanted to deal with straightforward probate matters themselves, but were worried about how to go about it, what exactly was involved and how they could avoid making mistakes that would leave them out of pocket.

They wanted a step- by-step, risk-free, quick and easy way of obtaining probate themselves.  I put together the DIY Probate Pack with these people in mind.

 

Before I launched the DIY Probate Pack there was a clear gap in the legal services market. Up until then, consumers had a very limited choice when it came to obtaining probate:

  • Use a solicitor & pay £thousands in legal fees. Many people do not want to use a solicitor, as aside from the extortionate cost, they want to carry out their duties as an executor themselves without involving a stranger.
  • Do everything themselves without any help. This meant completing all the research, working out who to inform, completing legal paperwork & writing all letters etc without any guidance or support. This isn’t really a satisfactory option as there are a number of things that can go wrong if you don’t know what you are doing. It is also very time consuming and can be a real headache.
The DIY Probate Pack takes the headache out of obtaining probate. It includes a straightforward step-by-step guide and all the letters/forms you will need.  It is a straightforward, tried and tested way to obtain probate.

Wondering if the DIY Probate Pack really works? Here’s proof!

 

May I thank you most sincerely for the help in applying for Probate for a dear friend who asked me to act as Executor. I was not related and decided to use the Assisted DIY option following a personal health problem which occurred whilst I was researching the Probate process.

Following an initial phone consultation I realised I would have to deal with inheritance taxation prior to probate application. Opting for the assisted DIY route meant all the correct forms and paperwork supplied by Berkeley Weston were completed and ready for the application process.

All subsequent phone enquiries were answered promptly and efficiently and I would definitely recommend this company for their excellent professional assistance dealing with Probate.

John Osborne

I decided against doing my own probate and was extremely pleased I choose Berkeley Weston. The forms and information initially sent were easy to follow. Once I had completed and sent them off to Berkeley Weston Probate was granted in approximately 10 days I was amazed how quickly they obtained it.

Throughout the process emails are sent with very helpful tips including a different subject each time. I have also had a follow up telephone conversation advising me how I should now deal with probate. the office is always on hand to help you with any questions you may have. Thank you for all the help and assistance.

Sue Salter

Having gathered together all of the information about my mum’s estate I thought it would be easy to do the probate myself but i was so wrong. The hardest part was knowing what forms to complete and what to do next – Berkeley Weston and the team were brilliant – i got them to help with the last stage of the process and it was so easy.

Sam was very friendly and we had some quick communication back and forth but I soon felt the weight lifted off my shoulders and the information was submitted for Probate. A big thanks to the team, without whom i would not now be in possession of my Probate certificates and inheritance!

Fiona Austen

My mum passed away in May and I initially bought the DIY Probate Pack from Berkeley and Weston. It contains a lot of useful information to get the job done. This helped me to decide to opt for the assisted Probate option and I have been very impressed with the service I’ve had throughout. Telephone responses were very quick. Forms were posted or emailed to me according to my preference and I avoided a couple of mistakes I would have made on the Probate form if I hadn’t had help.

Phil Weston, Samantha and Sarah are lovely people to deal with. They know the job inside out, explain things clearly and are very easy to talk to. They post completed forms off really quickly. The Probate Registry can take several weeks to process the forms but I had a great experience as mine were approved within a day or two of receipt. I would definitely recommend Berkeley and Weston for the probate process. They have been excellent to deal with and removed all my concerns with this part of the process.

Peter Craig

After my Mum’s death it was full on, arranging funeral, sale (and conveyancing) of her flat, and Probate. Getting help from Berkeley and Weston saved the day, and made the Probate process less demanding as they knew how to help me with the documentation.

David Fussell

Phil and his team have been invaluable in assisting me (a complete novice) in completing my mum’s probate application. Valuable advice and help by email and phone. Although I did most of the groundwork the final application was completed by them. The confirmation of the grant of probate was received 7 weeks later! I would highly recommend Berkeley Weston Ltd.

Lisa Canavan

One is never fully ready to do something as big as this… I thought I was so bought the DIY Pack and got as far as I felt I could but but it became overwhelming. I needed to seek help which I’m so pleased I did. They were prompt with doing everything they had to do, polite so thankyou guys, Probate has been received.

Christine Napthan

I researched this company after being quoted £15,000 by a solicitor and cannot thank them enough.

The service was efficient, kind and helpful nothing was to much trouble.

They kept us informed every step of the process.

I have also recommended them to a number of friends who also have had 5 star service from them.

Do not waste your money on a solicitor.

Zoe Saxon

As a retired accountant I have spent most of my working life completing a variety of forms for HMRC. The Inheritance Tax form was new to me, first attempt showed that an amount of tax would be due. A free consultation with Samantha from Berkeley Weston suggested that there would be no IHT due. I then took the option of their assisted probate. having collated all of the assets, will and registrar’s certificates it was a great relief to send the entire package to Phil Weston. Now well on our way to Probate, at a cost we estimate as about 30% of traditional solicitor’s fees, we await the final documentation from the courts.

Fast, efficient and friendly is the best way I can describe my experience. My grant of probate was approved within one calendar month.

Ian King, Kent

“I used the DIY Probate Pack and just wanted to say “thank you” for making the process so easy. I hadn’t realised I could do probate myself and was about to use a solicitor who wanted to charge me £3,000. I am so grateful to you, I don’t think I could have have done this on my own.”

Julie Windsor, London
