The British Wills and Probate Awards 2023: Announcing the shortlist | Day three

Today’s Wills and Probate can today reveal the full shortlist for this year’s edition of The British Wills and Probate Awards, supported by headline sponsor CTT Group and networking sponsor Exizent.

The revered black-tie ceremony – now entering its sixth year – has become one of the most significant dates in the calendar of the wills and probate profession.

Set to be held at the Kimpton Clocktower Hotel in Manchester, this year also marks the biggest ceremony yet, with hundreds of attendees set to descend on the iconic Oxford Street venue in October.

Amongst those there on the night will be a prestigious group of finalists who have been meticulously selected by 26 esteemed judges from across the profession. With hundreds of submissions being made over the 26 categories, the judges’ time and attention to detail has been crucial in recent weeks.
