Honouring What Matters Most — Your Family's Legacy

A will is the document that records your wishes for how your estate should be distributed. Probate is the legal process through which a court confirms the will is valid and authorises the executor to carry out those wishes. If there is no will, an administrator is appointed instead through a separate process called letters of administration.

Timelines vary depending on the complexity of the estate, whether a will exists, and the court's schedule. A straightforward matter may be resolved in a few months, while contested or complex estates can take considerably longer. We keep you informed throughout and manage the paperwork so you are not left waiting without updates.

Yes, a will can be challenged in certain circumstances — for example, if there are questions about the testator's mental capacity, undue influence, or the document's validity. Our dispute resolution service helps families work through these matters as constructively as possible, aiming for outcomes that preserve relationships where that is feasible.

If you are unsure what to prepare, simply call us and we will guide you before your appointment.
