Settling your estate with dignity
Estate administration is, for many, a difficult and emotional task which can often be complicated by personal grief, business obligations or family disputes.

Our lawyers understand that seeing a solicitor and handling these affairs, may be daunting. We aim to guide you through the process of administering the deceased estate and obtaining probate (where necessary) with sensitivity. Miller Harris Lawyers wealth of experience in this area provides you with peace of mind as you protect and represent the interests of the estate beneficiaries.
