Wills, Estates and Probate

Documents We Commonly Assist With

• Last will and testament
• Letters of administration (L.A.)
• Probate applications: affidavits, consents and gazette publications

What This Generally Concerns

A will records how a person wishes their property to be handled. A letter of administration relates to the authority to manage the estate of someone who has died. The right route depends on the circumstances and the rules that apply.

Court matters are decided by the courts. Redeem can help with preparing documents but does not represent clients in court and is not presented as a law firm.

Questions Clients Often Ask

Things to Confirm
