Plan ahead and protect the people who matter to you

Summit Lawyers provides practical advice on Wills, estate planning, Probate, Letters of Administration and deceased estate administration. We tailor each matter to your family circumstances, assets and wishes, helping you plan ahead or manage an estate with confidence.

Our Wills & Estates Services

Wills

We prepare and review Wills that appoint suitable Executors, provide for your chosen beneficiaries and clearly record your wishes.

Probate

We assist Executors to obtain a Grant of Probate and guide them through the administration and distribution of the estate.

Letters of Administration

Where there is no valid Will or no Executor able to act, we assist eligible family members to apply for the appropriate grant.

Estate Planning and Deceased Estates

We also advise on Enduring Powers of Attorney, medical treatment appointments, superannuation, jointly owned property, trusts, companies and business succession. After a death, we guide Executors and Administrators on Court grants, their duties, estate assets, property transfers, potential claims and final distribution.
