What is Probate?
When a person draws up a will, they need to appoint someone to administer their estate when they die. This person is known as the executor. The executor is responsible for carrying out the terms of the will. The executor will sometimes need to apply for probate. Probate means the official recognition that a will is legally valid. The application is made to the Probate Registry of the Supreme Court for a “Grant of Probate”. The grant is a document certifying that the Supreme Court recognises the authority of the executor(s) to deal with the estate. This will enable the executor to collect the assets and pay any debts of the deceased person and then to distribute the estate as directed by the will.
Laurie Moss can advise you on matters of estate planning that need attention including preparing your Will and also if desirable and when you instruct a Power of Attorney and Appointment of Enduring Guardianship.

Wills and Probate
A will is a legal document that specifies how you want your assets to be distributed after your death. It also allows you to nominate an Executor who will be responsible for making sure that your wishes are carried out.
