Probate and Estate Administration
In New South Wales, "estate administration" refers to the legal process of managing a deceased person's estate, guided by the Probate and Administration Act 1898 and common law.
Family Provisions Claims
In New South Wales, a Family Provision Application allows individuals who believe they have been unfairly provided for under a Will, or who were left out entirely, to seek a fair share of the deceased's estate.
Defending an Estate
Defending a will in the event that a family provision claim is made can be complicated and stressful without appropriate expert legal advice.
Contesting or Challenging a Will
If you've been excluded from a Will or received an unfair share of the estate, you may have grounds to contest or challenge it.
Beneficiaries with Special Needs
Ensuring beneficiaries with special needs are adequately protected can be challenging.
