Our Probate Clearance Service – How We Could Help You
Probate clearances are an important part of the estate planning process. Probate clearance involves the process of settling a deceased person’s estate and distributing their assets to the rightful heirs. It can be a complex and lengthy process, especially for those who do not understand the legalities involved. Knowing what probate clearances are, what they involve, and how it impacts your estate can help you make informed decisions about your estate planning needs.
Approaching The Clearance
Clearing a deceased family member’s home can be extremely difficult for those who have spent years within the property. Probate clearance can be a confusing and overwhelming process. It is important to understand the steps involved in performing a probate clearance so that you are prepared for the entire procedure.
The first step of performing a probate clearance involves gathering all the necessary documents that are required for the estate administration process. These documents include items such as death certificates, wills, and other related documents. Once you have collected all these documents, it is time to start filing them according to the applicable laws.
Categorising The Items
We recommended reading through any legal documents including wills, to gain a full understanding of any items that need to be passed on to a friend or relative opposed to disposal. Once you have a number of items that are to be sent to their rightful owners, you can begin the clearance process. Using a traffic light system is a great way to decipher what items are staying and what items need removal and disposal, post-it notes can be used to colour code the items. You will then have to arrange the disposal and transport of the items accordingly. Not all waste can be disposed of in a landfill site, electronics and other items with chemicals within will need specialist disposal at a WEEE waste site.
