How we Can Help you With Probate
If you have been appointed as an Executor under a Will or are taking on the role of Administrator on an intestacy (when the deceased did not leave a Will), you will be undertaking a task that brings with it a host of responsibilities and obligations. These include but are not limited to:
- Protecting assets until they are sold or transferred to beneficiaries.
- Finalising all matters pertaining to Inheritance Tax, Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax.
- Preparing and submitting an application to the Court for a Grant of Representation (Probate or Letters of Administration).
- Ensuring all debts and liabilities of the estate are settled.
- Distributing the estate in accordance with the deceased’s Will or according to the Rules of Intestacy.
