Re: wills

It all depends upon the nature of the estate and the complexity of administration. If all goes well, and the assets are in tangible or liquid form suitable for distribution, the minimum time for filing a final account is six months from the date of the executor's appointment by the court. Distribution should not happen until receipts are obtained and the account approved by the court.

Probate requires careful attention to detail. You may wish to consult with an attorney to review all the facts and circumstances relating to your personal matter.
