Deceased Estates

deceased-estateThe death of a loved one can be a difficult time emotionally. Oakhill Lawyers makes the legal side of winding up the deceased’s affairs as straight-forward and stress-free as possible.

We have expertise in:

  • Preparing and lodging documents to obtain Grants of Probate (when a person has a valid Will)
  • Preparing and lodging documents to obtain Letters of Administration (when a person dies without a valid Will)
  • Liaising with the various asset and land registries, including interstate and overseas assets
  • Assisting with administration of the Will including the calling in of assets and distributions to beneficiaries
  • Preparing Deeds of Family Arrangement when the beneficiaries of a will agree to vary the will
  • Applications for executor’s commission
  • Informal wills where the deceased’s purported last will does not accord with the statutory requirements for making a valid will
  • Issues as to whether the deceased had capacity at the time of signing their will
