Administration of Estates/Probate
Dealing with bereavement is difficult enough without having to sort out family or friend's estates as well. You may have to arrange the funeral, go through personal papers to find out what assets and debts there may be, apply for probate and resolve tax as well as dealing with beneficiaries and other family members.
Being a Personal Representative of an estate can be an onerous task with personal liability for mistakes. We can help by advising you what to do and even deal with the entire estate on your behalf if you wish. We can assist on the following areas:
- Obtaining Grants of Probate (if there is a Will) and Grants of Letters of Administration (if there is no Will)
- Dealing with the administration of an estate and distribution to beneficiaries
- Preparation of Estate Accounts
