SERVICES

Estate Planning & Succession Law

Letters of Administration / Probate

When someone you love passes away, arranging the paperwork to finalise their estate can be a daunting and emotional time. This is why we ensure that we make the process of applying and administering an estate simple.

Tom Ellicott has over 25 years experience and has available an outstanding team of lawyers together with Gabriella Virtu (with over 20 years experience) to ensure the time and efficient administration of an estate.

Applying for:

Letters of Administration

There a two types of applications for letters of administration:

  • By a person who is not an executor named in the deceased’s will (the will needs to be attached);
  • By an interested party where the deceased did not leave a valid will.

Probate

Is a court order which confirms that the will is valid and that the executor/s have the right to administer the estate.

An executor is a person appointed by the will to administer the estate. A will can appoint more than one executor. An executor is in charge of making sure the deceased’s’ debts are paid and that their assets/possessions go where they wanted them to.

An executor can choose to remove themselves by signing a formal ‘renunciation’ and filing it in the Supreme Court of NSW.

Our fees are charged as per Legal Profession Regulation 2005.
