Wills and Probate

Obtaining Grant of Probate

To be able to deal with a person’s estate after their death you need to obtain a Grant of Probate from the Probate Court which confirms that the Will is valid and also confirms the appointment of the Executors named in the Will. Often Executors will have been close to the deceased and we can help with applying for Grant of Probate during this emotional time. Executors will have to assess the person’s estate - totalling the assets and also making sure all debts are paid and that the remainder of the estate is distributed to the beneficiaries named in the Will.
