Wills & Probate solicitors in Tallaght

The estate is divided under the Succession Act 1965. For example, a spouse or civil partner with no children inherits everything; with children, the spouse takes two-thirds and the children share one-third. Usually the next of kin applies for a grant of letters of administration.

A spouse or civil partner is entitled to a 'legal right share' — half the estate if there are no children, a third if there are — whatever the will says. A child can apply to court under section 117 of the Succession Act if a parent failed to provide for them properly; this must be brought within six months of the grant.

To practise in Ireland a solicitor must be on the Roll of Solicitors kept by the Law Society of Ireland and hold a current practising certificate. You can search any solicitor or firm on the Law Society's Find a Solicitor register. Complaints about a solicitor's services or conduct go to the Legal Services Regulatory Authority (LSRA). Every solicitor listed on Lawvoo was checked on the register on 23–24 October 2026 — people move firms, so check again before you instruct them.
