In detail…
Have you been named as the Executor in a loved one’s Will? If you have recently lost a loved one, it may be difficult to navigate the process of administering their estate. L & S Lawyers is here to help.
Did you know that Probate may not be required for small estates? We will advise you on whether or not Probate from the Supreme Court will be required – a cost which may be in excess of $2,000.00 for the filing fee and advertising alone. We will then assist you with gathering in the Estate, paying all the testamentary debts and expenses and then distributing the residue to the beneficiaries after the advisable time limits.
We are able to advise you on any Family Provision Application if the Will is contested.
A well-drafted Will is the best way to ensure your wishes are followed upon your demise.
