probate & Estate administration,
made simple.
Bare offers Australia’s simplest, and most affordable, probate and estate administration services. We provide grant of probate, letters of administration, and complete deceased estate management support.
what is Probate & estate administration?
Estate administration is the process of managing and distributing a person’s assets, and paying any relevant debts after they have died. Depending on whether the deceased person had a valid Will, either a grant of probate or letters of administration are generally needed to complete the estate administration process.
our business model lets us be much more affordable.
At Bare, we don’t have offices, we don’t have receptionists and we use smart technology to replace manual processes. This means we can deliver the highest quality legal service – at the lowest possible price.
