FULL ESTATE ADMINSTRATION
Estate administration is the process of dealing with a person’s legal and tax affairs after they have died.
All estates need to be administered to some extent.
If you are named as executor within a Will, or the next of kin if there is no Will, you may need to think about:
- Closing bank accounts and paying debts
- Dealing with shares and investments
- Redirecting post
- Re-homing pets
- Selling property and assets
- Dealing with inheritance tax and income tax forms
- Dealing with specialist legal work
These are just some of the things you may need to consider. Some people decide to administer the state themselves but this can take a significant amount of time and effort, especially if you have never had to go through the process before. You should also be aware that you are personally liable for any mistakes made during the process, such as when completing tax returns and legal paperwork.
