From Planning

After a death
Estate administration can involve more than one legal step.
After a person's death, the estate may require legal and procedural steps before assets can be administered, transmitted or dealt with by the appropriate persons.
The requirements depend on matters including whether a Will exists, the nature and location of assets, the persons entitled to the estate and the procedure applicable to the circumstances.
What we consider
Estate administration may require.
Executors & Heirs
Considering the persons responsible for or entitled in relation to the administration of the estate.
Probate
Assistance concerning probate where legal recognition of a Will and executor authority is applicable.
Letters of Administration
Assistance concerning administration authority where the applicable circumstances require it.
Estate Documents
Review and preparation of documents required for applicable estate procedures.
Post-Order Assistance
Further documentation or procedural assistance following the relevant court or legal process where applicable.
Our assistance

The work required after a death varies significantly between estates. The relevant procedure should therefore be identified after reviewing the Will, family position, assets and available documentation.
