At Etienne Botha Attorneys, we provide comprehensive legal services for the administration and winding up of deceased estates, ensuring a smooth and efficient process in accordance with South African law. Whether you are a family member, executor, or beneficiary, we offer expert guidance to navigate the complexities of estate administration and ensure that your loved one’s estate is handled with care and professionalism.
We assist in the appointment of executors, obtaining the necessary letters of executorship, and managing the entire estate administration process. This includes gathering the deceased's assets, settling outstanding debts, and distributing assets to the rightful heirs. Our goal is to ensure that the estate is administered in full compliance with the Administration of Estates Act.
We help individuals draft and update their wills, ensuring their estate is distributed according to their wishes. In cases where the deceased did not leave a will (intestate succession), we guide family members through the legal process to divide the estate in accordance with the Intestate Succession Act.
We offer legal support for resolving any disputes that may arise during estate administration, such as challenges to a will, claims against the estate, or disagreements among heirs. Our team provides strategic legal solutions to protect your rights and ensure fair resolution.
We are committed to providing compassionate and efficient legal services during what can be a challenging time for families. Let us guide you through the estate administration process with confidence.
