Whether it’s safeguarding the estate from undue claims, addressing immediate financial needs for funeral expenses, or settling urgent bills, our team provides essential legal support. Navigating the estate administration process is crucial to avoid legal pitfalls, such as accusations of intermeddling with the deceased’s property.
We offer comprehensive legal assistance throughout the succession process, advising administrators and beneficiaries, and preparing and submitting the necessary documentation for Letters of Administration—whether the deceased left a will (testate) or not (intestate).
