What is a Probate?

Probate is the legal process that gives someone the right to manage a deceased person’s estate this includes their property, money, and possessions.

You will need probate to:

  • Access the deceased’s finances (bank accounts, savings, or investments).
  • Sell or transfer property.
  • Distribute the estate to beneficiaries as set out in the Will or according to the law.

When Is Probate Required?

You may need probate if:

  • You are named as an executor in the deceased’s Will.
  • There is no Will, and you are the closest living relative.

Important: You should not make any financial decisions or put property up for sale until probate has been granted.

How Probate Works

In England and Wales, there are two types of legal authority depending on whether the deceased left a Will:

  • Grant of Probate: If there is a valid Will, the executors named in it can apply.
  • Grant of Letters of Administration: If there is no Will, the closest living relative can apply.
