People sometimes feel that they have not been properly provided for from the Estate of a dead person.
We can assist clients who:
- Believe they should receive more from an Estate; or
- Are defending a Will from claims by other parties.
Often the Executor or Administrator of an Estate can feel overwhelmed.
We provide general advice on all aspects of Estate administration and the application process.
If you have any concerns at all we strongly recommend contacting us. It is easy to make mistakes when administering an Estate that can have costly and disproportionate consequences.
There are many matters to deal with following the death of a person. Some are major, some are minor.
We can assist with transfers of assets, communication with institutions and general matters to do with the winding-up of an Estate.
Some assets require a Grant of Probate issued by the Supreme Court of Western Australia to transfer them. (For example, Land transfers by Landgate – the Western Australian Land Department).
If probate was originally granted in another Australian state, or another country, you need to ‘Reseal’ that Grant. We can attend to resealing the Grant in Western Australia.
