Executor duties

I have been appointed as the executor of an estate. What does this mean? Should I speak to a lawyer?

Sandy  Rizkallah

The Executor is appointed to manage the estate affairs of the deceased after death. As the Executor of an estate you will be required to make an application for a grant of Probate.An application for Probate is usually a time consuming and drawn out task if you are not familiar with the process. Probate should be obtained as soon as possible after the death of the person so that the estate can be administered in a timely and in an efficient manner.

Suggested way forward

It is best to obtain legal assistance to make an application to the Supreme Court in the relevant jurisdiction. Feel free to contact me for an obligation free chat to discuss further.
