If the Estate is straightforward, then we would expect to complete the administration of the Estate within 6 to 12 months. The administration is complete when the Grant of Probate has been obtained, the Estate has been valued, the assets have been collected and distributed and the Estate accounts have been prepared. We cannot be precise with the timescale because there are factors that could delay it, for example the sale of a Property. If the Estate is complex, then we would expect the timescale to be longer than 12 months. Find out more about the Administration of the estate and how we can help you here
