Practical, compassionate help to settle an estate – so you can focus on what matters.
Legal commitments are the last thing you want to deal with when you’re grieving the loss of someone you love.
When someone passes on, their assets and liabilities remain. It falls to the executor to collect the estate’s assets, pay debts, transfer property, resolve any disputes and distribute what remains to the beneficiaries. This process is known as estate administration.
Estate assets often sit with banks, superannuation funds, share registries and other investment groups – each with its own release requirements.
Probate is a document granted by the Supreme Court that allows asset holders to release the deceased’s assets to the person entitled to them.
Probate isn’t always required. Requirements differ between states, banks and government departments – we’ll tell you what applies to you.
In many cases, payment can be deferred until the estate administration is completed.
Our involvement reduces your responsibilities during a difficult time and our fees are offset by what’s saved in efficiency and accuracy. A quick chat about your situation will give you a clearer understanding of the costs involved.
