A person’s estate can be complex and in any instance where no Will was drawn up, the estate is made even more difficult to administer.

An executor of an estate is responsible for locating all of the financial documentation pertaining to organisations who have provided financial assistance to the departed individual and advising them of the demise of the individual which has now become an estate. The administer of the estate would need to establish the financial value of the estate and ensure that bank account are frozen so that no person, who is not entitled to access the money of the departed individual, has access to the funds he or she may have accrued. New accounts will be opened on the estate’s behalf which will be used to administer any inheritance taxes issues from Inland Revenue and attend to other debts and liabilities which need to be paid from the estate.

Documentation includes preparing Probate papers which are to be issued to the Probate registry in order to attain a Grant of Probate or a Grant of Letter of Administration, which will enable the executor to process the settlement of the liabilities and administer the assets of the state in the manner required in the legal Will of the deceased, or if there is no written will, in line with requirements of the intestate estate instructed by the probate court. In the eventuality that the Will be found as being invalid, probate court will need to take over the directions of possessions in line with beneficiary designation prescribed by the court.
