Wills, Probate and Estates
Probate is the area of law dealing with the estate of a person who has died. When a loved one passes away we will provide you with expert advice on all areas of Probate law and we will assist you, the personal representatives, executors and administrators by guiding them in administering a deceased’s estate in a timely and efficient manner. The identity of the personal representative will depend on whether the deceased left a will and named an executor in it. If not, there are rules which govern who is entitled to act as the personal representative. We can also advise you on the rights of a spouse to a legal right share, a co-habitant or a child to an inheritance from a parent. |
The Succession Act 1965 is the main piece of legislation governing Probate matters in Ireland. When someone passes away their estate or assets pass to their personal representative. In order for the next-of-kin or beneficiaries to receive their inheritance the deceased’s estate needs to be ‘administered’ through the Probate Office of the High Court by the personal representative. ABC Solicitors will help you through the legal requirements so that matters are dealt with and sorted out as per the deceased’s wishes. |
