Estates

Where a person passes away and they have left behind any assets and money to their name, a deceased estate comes into existence. If the deceased left behind a will, their estate will be administered in accordance with the will. If the deceased died without a will, their estate will be administered in terms of the Intestate Succession Act.

We at SBP Attorneys will guide you or your loved ones through the process, from reporting the estate to the Master of the High Court, through to exacting procedures prescribed by law, to the final distribution of the estate to the beneficiaries.
