WHAT IS INTESTACY?
When a person dies without a valid Will in place, they are said to have died intestate. A Grant of Administration Intestate is the document issued by the High Court Probate Office, after an intestate estate has been administered. It is the document that gives the Administrator(s) the authority to deal with the assets of the deceased person. For example, bank accounts can be closed, and property can be sold. Then, the Administrator distributes the assets of the estate in accordance with the laws of intestacy. After the first consultation, we will provide a full transparent fee structure of the legal costs and the outlays that will be incurred in the transaction.
