What is Probate?

Probate is the legal process for dealing with the Estate, or assets, of someone who has died.

Where there is a Will, this is the responsibility of the Executors. In most cases this will be a family member or close friend. If you are an Executor, you may need to obtain a Grant of Probate to deal with the Estate.

Where a Will has not been made, Personal Representatives of the Estate will need to be appointed.

Whether you need us to guide you through the whole procedure, or provide assistance with a particular aspect, we are here to help.
