Wills and Estates

Our firm offers a range of legal services including will drafting, estate preparation and estate administration. We are experienced in preparing wills, powers of attorney, health care directives, trusts and providing estate advice. Our lawyers can provide sound advice on planning matters in a clear and understandable way.

 

Additionally, our lawyers are experienced in acting for executors and administrators in all aspects of estate assests. We explain the role of the Executor, Administrator. and Power of attorney, the rights of beneficiaries and the process for administering an estate and  assist in interpreting wills. We are involved as early as gathering information on the assets,  to applying for probate/letters of administration, publishing for creditors, completing passing of accounts and final distribution of the estate. We also work with your financial advisors and accountants to assist in all aspects of administration.

 

We also have experience in assisting the next of kin in applying for a committeeship order when one does not have a power of attorney, but a committee is needed to deal with the affairs of an incompetent individual.

 

For further information or advice on any of the above, please contact our office and one of our lawyer’s in the wills and estates department will be happy to talk  to you.

We sit down with our clients to determine what their needs are and customize their estate planning to suit their needs.
