Probate & Administration
Probate: Probate is the process whereby the Supreme Court confirms that the Will of a deceased person is valid and approves the authority of the Executor to administer the Estate. Not all estates require probate. Whether a Will requires probate will depend on a number of factors, including what assets are held by the Estate at the time of the deceased’s death and how those assets may be released
We provide advice with respect to deceased estates and can advise you whether an estate requires Probate or may be dealt with informally.
