Trusted Estate Legal Experts
An executor is a person (or sometimes more than one person) named in a Will to carry out the wishes of the Will-maker after their death. This can often be individuals, solicitors or specialist trustee companies that are named as executors. We are specialists in making the administration phase streamlined.
In Australia, most banks and financial institutions will not release the balance of a deceased person’s bank account - other than for small balances - until probate has been obtained.
The person named as executor of the will is usually responsible for applying for probate. We make this process streamlined & easy.
Death and loss is an emotionally exhaustive time, which is made more difficult when you are facing being left out of a Will or being provided for adequately. We treat every case as if it is our own personal battle. We're here to listen to every aspect of your circumstances to make sure we can achieve your ideal outcome.
If Will-maker failed to appoint an executor, usually the court needs to appoint someone to administer the estate. A person appointed by the court is called an administrator. Often this is the beneficiary with the largest portion of the estate. An administrator has the same responsibilities as the executor.
