Probate matters in Ireland mostly fall under the Succession Act 1965 legislation, which dictates that once a person passes away, their estate of assets pass on to their personal representative. The estate is administered through the Probate Office of the High Court by the personal representative. J.G. Skinner and Co can advise on and assist with all matters relating to the Succession Act 1965.
Enduring Power of Attorney
An Enduring Power of Attorney refers to the legal process a person undertakes to appoint someone to handle their estate and affairs should they become unable to make these decisions for themselves (incapacitated). J.G. Skinner and Co can assist with the process of appointing an Enduring Power of Attorney, including choosing the level of decision-making power granted.
