Grant Application for Probate $1,500Many families are surprised to learn that banks, land titles, and other institutions can request that the executor get the testator's will validated by the court. To do this, one must apply for a grant of probate, regardless of whether the will was created by a law firm, a will's kit, or a holograph before liquidation and distribution of the estate can occur.
- Grant Application for Administration $1,500
If there is no will, then the estate is considered intestate. At this point, no one, including the surviving spouse, has the authority to meddle in the estate as the duties are severely restricted until after the court issues a grant, and this happens when you apply to the court for the grant of administration by way of application.
- Limited Grant + Full Grant $2,000
Sometimes, an executor or potential administrator may need to obtain a limited grant immediately to address specific estate concerns before acquiring a full grant. If the Justice of the Court approves the request, the executor can receive the limited grant in less than a week. Thereafter a full grant must be applied for to complete the estate work.
- A Non-Grant Application $1,000
Suppose no institutions, such as land titles, banks, investment companies, or vehicle registries, require a probate grant or administration grant from the executor or administrator issued from the court; then the expected beneficiaries would receive a non-grant application from the executor or administrator to wrap up the estate affairs. (Inquire)
- Supplementary Affidavit $450 | 3 hours
After a grant has been received from the Justice of the Court, the executor still may need to amend the inventory list by way of a supplementary affidavit, once all assets have been disclosed. (Inquire about our first 3 hours of work.)
- Probate Proofreading Services $450 | 3 hours
To ensure the Justice of the Court accepts your application work, we offer a 3-hour proofreading service of your completed draft or rejected grant application forms. With our 15 years of application experience, we can thoroughly check what you must amend before filing at the courthouse. (Inquire about our first 3 hours of work.)
- Beneficiary Release Forms $450 | 3 hours
The court has mandated executors to prepare proper documents in order to have the beneficiary release you from your duties. This is the correct way for the executor to be protected and freed from all their duties. Then the executor can close the estate file, when applicable. (Inquire about our first 3 hours of work.)
