Weir Law was founded by Scottish solicitor, Tim Weir, who qualified in Scotland in 2006. The firm provides specialist legal services to clients throughout Scotland, the rest of the UK and overseas.
A particular focus of the firm is Scottish executry work. We assist executors with obtaining Confirmation through the Scottish Courts, and can undertake the full administration of estates (with or without a Will) from the initial investigation of the estate through to ingathering funds, settling liabilities and distributing the estate to beneficiaries.
We also advise clients on Wills and Powers of Attorney and provide a range of related services, including our C1 Confirmation Checking Service, mortgage discharge and notary services.
Our aim is to provide straightforward, practical advice, with clear information about the work required and the costs involved.
“Tim dealt with my Mother’s estate after her passing on behalf of my sister and I. He was very professional and supportive during this difficult time and provided excellent advice throughout the process. He was extremely easy to speak to and responded quickly to any query we had. Tim has a very pleasant manner about him and it was a pleasure dealing with him. His costs were very reasonable also.”

We act for clients throughout Scotland, the rest of the UK and overseas. Our clients include executors dealing with Scottish estates, individuals making Wills or Powers of Attorney, and families requiring advice following a death.
We also work with other solicitors and professional advisers where a matter requires specialist assistance with Scottish Confirmation or estate administration. This includes assisting solicitors outside Scotland where an estate requires Scottish Confirmation or has other assets in Scotland.
Where appropriate, we work alongside clients' existing accountants, financial advisers, property professionals and other advisers to ensure that the different aspects of an estate or private client matter are dealt with properly.
