Deceased Estates, Wills & Trusts
Deceased estates, wills and trusts
Whether planning ahead or dealing with a recent death, the first step is to establish the people, documents, assets and liabilities involved. We explain the process before work begins.
Questions to bring
Start with the facts that change the route.
- Is there a valid will and where is the original?
- Has the estate been reported?
- Who is dealing with the Master’s Office?
- Does property or a trust form part of the estate?
