What Does Probate Mean?

Probate is a certificate granted by the Supreme Court of South Australia to the effect that the Will of a deceased person has been proved and registered in the Court.

Probate allows the executor to wind up the deceased’s estate and distribute the assets.

How Do You Apply For Probate?

It is the executor that applies to the court for a grant of probate.

The application needs to be completed correctly and in full, and presented to the court with all accompanying documentation.

The application is quite complex and a large number of rules and formalities must be followed.

Is Probate Necessary?

If the assets were jointly owned or had another person’s name as an owner as well, probate is usually not required, as the assets will be transferred to the 2nd owner by survivorship.

However if the assets were owned solely by the deceased and they have left a will, then probate is required.
