Estate Administration in Cardiff and Newport

Whenever a person dies, his or her estate needs to be collected and managed. The process of Estate Administration involves gathering the assets of the estate, paying any overriding debt and distributing the remaining assets. We deal with the entire Estate Administration process efficiently and sympathetically.

We gather all the relevant details concerning the deceased’s assets and liabilities saving you from a pile of paperwork at a sensitive time when you should be focusing on other important issues. A massive bonus of using an Estate Administration service in Cardiff and Newport is that the capital in the estate, if less than £5,000 can be collected and distributed without the need for court approval. 

If the value of the deceased’s assets is in excess of £15,000 or any single asset is in excess of £5000, then it is essential to obtain court approval in the form of a Grant of Probate if a Will exists. If there is no Will it is necessary to obtain a Grant of Letters of Administration.

Here at Howells, we can offer different levels of service dependent upon how little or much help a client would like from simply assisting with obtaining the Grant of Probate at a fixed fee to a bespoke service from taking instructions to distributing the estate which depends on the level and complexity of the estate itself.
