Probate

In your Will you will nominate your Executors, those people who carry out your wishes, and take your Will through the legal Probate process.

Typically your Executors will be a spouse, children, or other family or close friends.

If your Executors need advice on how to carry out the Probate tasks, then they can contact Goodwills for that advice. If they do no need advice then they do not have to contact us. If they call for advice, it is just a phone call, there are no costs involved for the advice.

In fact, your local Consultant will write to the Executors some time after you have received your Will, so that the Executors have contact details available.

However,sometimes, due to the personal situation at the time the Executors prefer to have the probate carried out on their behalf.

Goodwills offers a Probate service, again only if required, and again our professional fees are significantly lower than typical.

For further guidance, please contact your local Consultant.
