Dear Sir / Madam,
(Thane, Maharashtra)
Ideally, a mutual settlement amongst all the legal heirs is recommended. But there is always a risk that a legal heir may feel he has not received an equitable settlement. To avoid any complications amongst the legal heirs now or in future, obtaining a Probate for the transfer of the property in the name of the beneficiaries named in the Will is advisable and recommended. If straightforward, award of Probate can be completed within 6 months.
