Legal Services for Individuals: Estate Administration

Administering an Estate is a big responsibility and involves a great deal of work, sometimes continuing for several years. A lawyer experienced in administering estates can make your task much easier and help you avoid pitfalls and problems. Depending on your preferences, your lawyer can take on many of your responsibilities as the Estate Trustee or simply advise you and help you with the preparation of the application for appointment as Estate Trustee (often referred to as the application for probate). Read my article Acting as an Estate Trustee for an outline of your responsibilities and how I can assist you if you retain my services.
