Probate
It’s Complicated
When a person dies they usually leave behind a Will that specifies what is to happen to their assets upon their death. The Supreme Court of South Australia is the Court which has the exclusive jurisdiction in this State to make orders in relation to the validity of a Will of a deceased person, the appointment of an executor, and the administration of a deceased estate.
A grant of Probate is the official recognition by the Court of the right of a personal representative to administer the estate of a deceased person. Download our brochure “Executive Duties in a Deceased Estate”
