When someone you love dies, your grieving process begins. Alongside the huge emotional impact of a death, there are the administrative burdens to deal with too. At Friends Legal, we can offer practical and legal advice to help you through this time. Our guides and FAQs explore what steps you need to take to register the death and organise a funeral. We can also guide you through the executry process, including obtaining a grant of Confirmation (or probate) from the Court. All of which is required to allow you to distribute your loved one’s belongings in accordance with their wishes.
Our Executry Services
We offer a personal service tailored to you, should you need it. Whether that’s advice to enable you to deal with your loved one’s assets yourself (offering advice throughout the estate administration process); helping you apply for Confirmation, or stepping in to manage the executry process in its entirety by undertaking all the administration and legal requirements involved in carrying out your loved one’s wishes. We’re here – by your side – to guide you.
