At Commercial & Legal Services, we recognise the emotional and practical challenges that come with dealing with probate and deceased estates, particularly during a difficult time of loss. If you have been named as an executor in a will, it is essential to determine whether probate is required, as this process is essential for the Supreme Court to verify the will and the executor’s authority. Our team provides expert advice on navigating probate, including managing tax affairs, paying outstanding bills, and addressing funeral expenses. If a person has passed without a will, we can also assist in obtaining Letters of Administration, which grants the administrator authority to manage the estate according to state legislation. We also assist with the preparation of Wills, Powers of Attorney, and Advance Care Directives to ensure that your assets and medical decisions are legally protected. A well-drafted will can help avoid potential family disputes and ensure your wishes are followed. Our experienced team works closely with clients to document their wishes regarding asset distribution and decision-making in the event they are no longer able to manage their affairs. We also advise on Enduring Powers of Attorney and Advance Care Directives, which appoint someone to make financial and medical decisions on your behalf should you lose the ability to do so.

At Commercial & Legal Services, we understand the emotional and financial challenges that come with separation or divorce, and our team is here to guide you through this difficult time with professionalism and discretion. We offer a commercially focused approach to help you achieve the best possible outcome, ensuring the process is as smooth and efficient as possible. Whether you're dealing with property settlements, custody disputes, or navigating divorce proceedings, we are committed to supporting you every step of the way. Our team can assist in documenting agreements through Consent Orders, which are binding court orders concerning financial or child-related matters, or Binding Financial Agreements, which offer a formal property settlement without court endorsement. Additionally, we help establish Parenting Plans, which outline care and custody arrangements for children. In cases where court intervention is necessary, we provide expert guidance in applying for both interim and final court orders, ensuring that your rights and interests are protected throughout the legal process.
