Probate Law
When a person dies, their property and assets must be ‘collected in’ and distributed under the terms of the deceased’s will. In the absence of a valid will, the estate will be distributed under the statutory rules of intestacy, which sets out a strict hierarchy of who gets what, starting with the closest living relatives.
Our probate and estate administration services include:
- Checking the will (if there is one) or determining who could be appointed executor/s
