Professional Estate Administration Services | Tralee, Co. Kerry

Administering the estate of a loved one can be a complex and emotional responsibility. Whether you have been appointed as an executor under a will or are responsible for dealing with an estate where no valid will exists, professional legal advice can help ensure the process is completed correctly and efficiently. At Whelehan Solicitors, we provide experienced estate administration and probate services for clients throughout Tralee and County Kerry, guiding you through every stage with clear, practical advice.

Responsibilities of Executors

An executor is appointed by the deceased in their will and plays a crucial role in the estate administration process. At Whelehan Solicitor, we assist executors by:

  • Applying for Grants of Probate: We handle the legal process of obtaining Grants of Probate, which allows the executor to administer the deceased’s estate according to their will.
  • Asset and Liability Assessment: Executors provide detailed information about the deceased’s assets and liabilities to facilitate the smooth administration of the estate.
  • Debt Settlement and Asset Distribution: Once probate is granted, we manage the settlement of debts owed by the deceased and distribute remaining assets to the beneficiaries named in the will.

Intestate Estates (No Will)

In cases where the deceased did not leave a will (intestate), Whelehan Solicitor advises on obtaining Letters of Administration. This legal document empowers the deceased’s spouse or next of kin to administer the estate in accordance with the law of intestacy, which determines how assets are distributed among relatives.
