The distribution of an estate as specified by a will is often a challenging matter with extensive legal documentation becoming the bugbear of law firms instructed to carry out the wishes of the Deceased.
The process of drawing up a will is a detailed task designed to protect the individual by ensuring named beneficiaries receive their rightful inheritance.
The practicalities of producing a truly comprehensive document including up to date contact addresses of beneficiaries, are such that many wills require thorough investigative research before an estate can be bequeathed as intended.
In cases of intestacy, where a will is not present, the task of distributing an estate can become a particularly difficult affair, especially if there is no known next of kin.
