If you are the executor of a Will, we can help you with the various tasks that are required in order for you to administer the deceased’s estate according to their wishes.
In many cases, a grant of Probate is required from the Court before an executor can access the property, assets and bank accounts of the deceased person and deal with them in accordance with the Will. At Maclarens Lawyers, we can guide you through the process – even if we didn’t create the original Will – and help you to navigate the complexities of deceased estates, as easily and painlessly as possible.
Where the deceased failed to leave a valid Will, or the appointment of the executor is ineffective, an application for a grant of Administration either with the Will annexed or on intestacy may be required. Expert knowledge and advice is required to handle such an application.
