This session provides valuable information to ensure that the correct procedure is followed once a deceased has passed away and the estate is correctly and timeously administered.

Clients with Wills and clients without Wills will approach you at the time of death to assist with the administration process.

The administration process for both testate estates (those passing away with a valid Last Will and Testament) and intestate estates (those who passed away without a valid Last Will and Testament) is very similar.

After the death of the Testator / Testatrix, his / her assets then become the deceased estate, which assets must be administered and distributed in terms of the Administration of Estates Act no 66 of 1965.

To avoid any unnecessary delays in obtaining the Letters of Executorship or Letters of Authority in a section 18(3) estate where the value of the assets is less than R250 000, it is of the utmost importance to ensure that the correct information and documentation are forwarded to the Master of the High Court with the application for Executorship / Master’s Representative.
