Re: Estates
Being a next of kin, you would need a letter of probate duly obtained from the High court of the State of testator's residence before death. A copy of the said Will also may come in handy for certain applications to be made for you.
Our professional Fees shall depend on the value of the estate in question. Also our firm shall be charging a minimal amount that would cover the out of poocket expenses that would be expended on your behalf during the process.
