Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Will?

A Will is a document that sets our instructions as to how you wish your assets to be distributed when you die. We can guide you through this process.

You can make a Will by working with a solicitor to draft a legal document that outlines how your assets should be distributed and who will manage your estate after your death. We provide this service at €250.00 for an individual, and €350.00 for a couple.

What is Probate?

Probate is the legal process of validating a Will and administering a deceased person’s estate, ensuring that assets are distributed according to their Will or the laws of intestacy if no will exists.

Seeking legal advice is recommended to navigate the procedure and potential disputes that may arise, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. Our solicitor, Collette Bryson, has decades of experience in the area, giving you peace of mind during a difficult time.

What are Succession Rights?

We advise on who is entitled to inherit an estate when there is no Will. We can also advise disappointed family members on their rights to challenge a Will where they feel they have not been properly provided for.

What is the Process of Administering the Deceased’s Estate?

We advise and assist with the duties and functions of an Executor/Administrator. An Executor is the person appointed in the Will to administer the Deceased’s estate. An Administrator is the person entitled to administer the deceased’s estate where there is no Will.

We arrange for the collection of all assets in the estate, and, having discharged any taxes due, we distribute the estate to the Beneficiaries. If there is property in the estate, we prepare the necessary deeds and documents to have the title registered in the Land Registry in the name of the Beneficiaries.

Do You Advise on Tax Considerations?

Yes we specialise in tax considerations regarding Wills and probate. We can advise you on inheritance tax, when it might arise, and the best manner in which to minimise your estate’s exposure to inheritance tax.
