Probate and Legal advice

Probate is a document released by the Probate Registry confirming that an Executor has the right to wind up the person’s estate. The estate is the house, money and savings left behind by someone who has died. If the estate is small then probate may not be necessary. Getting advice from Citizen’s Advice Bureau may be useful.

If there is no Will then speaking to a Solicitor may be helpful. Most Solicitors will offer up to half an hour free legal advice.
