If you are looking to get an estate distributed you may find yourself in need of a probate lawyer.
In NSW, a probate order is a court order which confirms the validity of a will and gives permission to the executor of the will to distribute the estate according to the will.
If you are a named executor named in the will, you must apply for probate if there is real estate in the deceased’s sole name or if any asset within the estate cannot be transferred without probate.
The deceased’s estate cannot be distributed until you apply for and are granted probate by the Supreme Court of NSW.
Going through the court process can be a daunting and often confusing process. Family members who are supposed to inherit an estate are often suprised by the complexity of the process. Issues during a probate process can arise if the deceased didn’t have their affairs fully in order, didn’t leave a will or did not name an executor.
There are countless other issues that can also come up during the probate process, such as the will being contested and disputes over who should be named executor.
