Frequently Asked Questions
What is probate and when is it needed?
Probate is the legal process of validating a will. It’s often required when transferring significant assets like property or shares. We can advise if probate court is necessary in your case.
What happens if there’s no will?
If a person dies without a will, their estate is distributed according to law. We can assist with applying for Letters of Administration and handling the estate.
Can someone challenge or contest a will?
Yes. A will can be contested if someone believes they’ve been unfairly left out or inadequately provided for. We assist both sides in contested wills.
When should I update my estate planning documents?
It’s best to review your estate planning documents after key life events like marriage, divorce, a birth, or major asset changes. We can help update your will or POA.
