I live overseas and my parent that lives in South Africa has died – how do I administer the deceased estate and who can help me? This is a very common scenario for many South African’s who have left the country and their parents are now elderly and have passed away.
It is imperative that you contact a professional who has vast experience with administering and executing estates where the heirs live overseas and where the deceased may or may not have assets overseas. Finding the right organization or person to do this is often difficult and often you have to wait for hours in a call center to be assisted. You do not want to appoint a nebulous institution or company where the service is impersonal and you cannot pick up the phone or WhatsApp to ask a quick question. You need a person to deal with when you are feeling overwhelmed and are far away.
Documents will have to be notarised and perhaps even apostilled. At ExecutorLaw/JBredenkampINc we are attorneys, notaries, conveyancers and administrators of deceased estates. We do everything for you, for your own convenience and peace of mind. You will not be sent from one department to the next, left with more questions than answers about the administration of your parent’s estate.
For fast, compassionate and reliable service, contact ExecutorLaw/JbredenkampInc today to draft your parents will and/or to administer their estate.
