We are delighted to share some wonderful personal news from our team.
On 21st May 2026, Lucy Shepherd and her husband Nick welcomed their second son, Theo David Shepherd, into the world.
Mother and baby are doing well and the whole family must be feeling on top of the world.
From everyone at Rotherham Taylor, we wish Lucy, Nick and their growing family all the very best as they settle into life as a family of four. Congratulations to you all.
Have used Rotheram Taylor across several business ventures and have always found them knowledgeable, flexible, timely, and professional. Have recommended to a number of colleagues and friends.

They were really helpful, responsive to any queries I had and have been very supportive with any ad-hoc matters I have needed advice on. Really approachable and highly recommended.”
“Always very responsive, helpful and know the answers to any of my problem or question (and I tend to ask a lot of them). Rotherham Taylor is the one who you can trust.”

Would highly recommend!”

If a valid Will is in place, the executors will apply for a grant of probate. This allows them to distribute the assets according to the wishes of the deceased.
Where there is no valid Will (the person has died ‘intestate’) a Grant of Administration must be applied for by the next of kin.
Our probate experts will be able to provide you with advice and guide you through either process.
