Administration of Estates

Administration of estates is the legal process of managing and distributing a deceased person's assets and liabilities. When someone passes away, their estate—property, money, possessions—needs to be handled according to their will or, if there’s no will, the law. An appointed administrator oversees gathering the estate’s assets, paying any debts or taxes, and then distributing what remains to the rightful beneficiaries or heirs. This process ensures the deceased’s estate is settled properly, fairly, and efficiently, following legal procedures to protect all parties involved.
