Obtaining Probate in Record Time

We always endeavour to obtain a Grant of Probate/Letters of Administration with the minimum of delay. Recently, we were able, with the co-operation of the Probate Registry, to obtain probate in record time: five working days from lodgement of the Application. Our deceased client died late September leaving a complex situation in regard to minor children, guardianship, pension entitlements and death in service benefits. We gave very close attention to the needs of the bereaved family at a distressful time for them and by expressing the need for speed with the various debtors and creditors of the estate to provide accurate information as quickly as possible, we were able to present the papers to the Registry in a form enabling it to process the Application far quicker than usual.
