When someone dies in New Zealand, leaving a valid will, their family are likely to need 'probate' of the will. This is a legal procedure. However, it may not need the expensive involvement of a traditional law firm. Cheryl Simes, of Kiwilaw, explains and compares the options, including Kiwilaw's own online probate service. Fees are outlined and compared. FAQs (frequently asked questions) are answered, and links provided to helpful resources. Links are also provided to Kiwilaw's online screening form to help people take things further.
