Probate
We deal quickly and efficiently with estates. If you are an executor of an estate we offer help and guidance and will take on as much (or as little) of the work as you require.
If you are a beneficiary of an estate where there is no Will we can assist you in the process of dealing with the intestacy.
In either case we can prepare all necessary forms so as to obtain a Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration and once granted will assist with the calling in of assets and distribution of the estate.
If you are a beneficiary in an intestacy or executor of an estate we offer a free initial half hour consultation where
we can explain the steps that are necessary, and if you wish to instruct us we will take over or assist (as you prefer) in obtaining the necessary information from Banks, Building Societies, Share Registrars etc so as to ascertain the size of the estate. We can obtain property valuations from a local valuer or estate agent.
We are then able to advise on the tax implications (if any) and prepare the necessary forms and oath to enable an application to be made to the Probate Registry for a Grant of Probate or Letters of Administraton.
It will normally take the Probate Registry about 2 weeks to issue the grant and thereafter it is possible to call in or transfer assets. Again we will do as much or as little of this as you wish.
