Probate & Administering an Estate

When a loved one passes away, there’s a lengthy list of tasks to attend to, including the important process of grieving.

So how do you know what to do and where do you start? Who do you need to inform? Who can arrange the funeral? Who can deal with the assets? The answers to these questions depend on several factors, including whether the deceased left a valid will and who their family members are.

The individual, known as an executor, who has been assigned legal authority to manage the deceased’s affairs has the responsibility to ensure compliance with all relevant laws, settling debts, fulfilling tax obligations, and distributing assets to beneficiaries, among various other tasks to complete, the list can be extensive.

The way in which an estate will be administered will depend on whether the deceased left a will or not. When someone dies without a will this is known as an intestacy.
