Legal Answers from Experienced Sydney Law Firm
Estate planning involves creating legal documents during your lifetime to manage your assets and ensure your wishes are carried out, including wills, enduring powers of attorney, and advanced care directives under NSW law. Probate in NSW is a court order from the Supreme Court that confirms the validity of your will, your death, and gives the executor legal authority to carry out the terms of your will.
Not all estates require probate in NSW. Probate provides legal authority for executors to obtain assets held by third parties such as banks or financial institutions.
The timeframe varies depending on complexity – simple uncontested applications may take several months, while contested matters can take much longer.
