FAQs: Probate Services
How long does the probate process typically take?
The probate process usually takes six to twelve months, although this can vary depending on the complexity of the estate, assets involved, and whether complications or disputes arise.
Do I need probate if the deceased left a valid will?
Yes, you often still need probate even if there is a valid will in place. Probate enables executors to access bank accounts, property, and investments to distribute the estate according to the deceased’s wishes.
How much does probate cost?
Probate costs vary based on the size and complexity of the estate. Factors influencing probate costs include the value of assets, number of beneficiaries, tax liabilities involved, and whether disputes arise.
Can I deal with probate myself without professional guidance?
You can handle probate yourself, especially with straightforward estates. However, the process can be time-consuming, stressful, and complex, particularly if inheritance tax or legal disputes arise. Professional guidance can simplify the process significantly.
What happens if there is no will?
If a person passes away without a will, they are considered to have died intestate. Their assets will be distributed according to intestacy rules, usually to relatives in a set priority order. You may need letters of administration rather than probate in these circumstances.
