Probate or Intestacy advice

Probate

When someone dies, you may be able to apply for a ‘grant of representation’. This gives you the legal right to deal with the person’s property, money and possessions (their ‘estate’). The right to deal with the estate of someone who’s died is called ‘probate’.

If you act as the executor of a will you are personally liable for how you deal with the estate. In view of this it is important that you take legal advice.

Intestacy

If a relative or friend dies without leaving a will, we can guide you through the process of dealing with that person’s estate.
