INHERITANCE & SUCCESSION SERVICES

Probate

AT A GLANCE

WHAT IT IS
A formal grant by a competent court to the executor named in a will, establishing the executor's authority to administer the estate.
WHEN YOU NEED IT
Where the law, the will or the assets require it. Probate is not compulsory for every will in India, and a bank asking for it does not by itself make it so.
WHAT WE DO
We help you establish whether probate, or letters of administration with the will annexed, is needed, and prepare the petition and documents for the right court.
