DECEASED ESTATES

We provide guidance to ensure assets are managed and distributed smoothly, giving you peace of mind during a difficult time.





  
PROBATE
Our probate services help you navigate the legal process of administering an estate after a loved one’s passing. We assist with obtaining a Grant of Probate, ensuring that the deceased's will is validated and their assets are distributed according to their wishes. With professional guidance, we simplify complex legal requirements, offering peace of mind and efficient handling of the estate administration process.























  
  








  
LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION
Our Letters of Administration services assist in managing an estate when there is no valid will or the appointed executor is unavailable. We help you apply for Letters of Administration, ensuring that you are legally recognised to administer the estate and distribute assets in accordance with the law. With our guidance, we streamline the process, offering peace of mind as you fulfill your responsibilities.























  
  








  
ESTATE ADMINISTRATION
We go the extra mile by identifying estates that do not require the strenuous process of obtaining a Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration from the Court. We will assist you every step of the way by assessing whether the estate is eligible and working with you to administer and distribute the estate in accordance with the will or law.
