PROFESSIONAL WILL DRAFTING
DECEASED ESTATE ADMINISTRATION
The Administration of Estates Act prescribes the process and steps that must be followed when managing a deceased estate. Appleton provides a complete and seamless executorship service. Irrespective of the complexity of the estate, Appleton manages all stages of the estate promptly, efficiently and ethically.

Thus, it is critical for us to remain abreast of all relevant legislation and regulation, not only for purposes of compliance, but to ensure that our clients receive the highest levels of service.
