Probate Administration

The stress and trauma of dealing with a relative’s death can be magnified when it comes to finances and paperwork, especially tax forms.

Death can throw up all sorts of financial shocks, from a nasty surprise in the Will, hidden debts or even a stash of share certificates that are unaccounted for.

Knowing where to start can be tough and create tensions within grieving families.

The process of Probate involves:

• Collecting any money that is owed.
• Settling debts due (including outstanding taxes).
• Dividing the estate amongst the respective beneficiaries.
