Probate Law

Probate Law

Upon the death of a relative or loved one there are many legal formalities that must be complied with in connection with the administration of the deceased’s estate. For many the burden of fulfilling these legal obligations during the time that they are bereaved can be unduly stressful and some of the formalities required can seem insensitive to those involved.

For this reason we offer a caring and conscientious probate service to assist you in managing the estate of your loved one right from the outset. Some of the areas in which we offer our assistance and advice include:

  • Identifying the person responsible for administering the estate as the personal representative of the deceased
  • Applying for a grant of probate/administration in order to allow the personal representative to deal with the estate
  • Assessing your liability to pay inheritance tax
  • Establishing the extent of the estate;
  • Gathering in the deceased’s assets;
  • Paying the deceased’s debts and addressing his liabilities; and
  • Distributing his estate according to his Will, or law.
