New - use your own lawyer for probate, and still save $$$$$$
About 30% of new applications are rejected by the Probate Unit. (Source: letter from Probate Unit team leader, 7 Nov 2019.) Almost all of those are submitted by law firms.
Applications prepared by Kiwilaw are very seldom rejected - and the small number of rejections is decreasing as we improve our guidance to clients.
However, clients like the reassurance of using their familiar lawyer.
GOOD NEWS!! Law firms can now use Kiwilaw's service to prepare probate-application documents efficiently and at a reasonable price.
So if you're an executor and you need probate, and you don't feel confident about doing it yourself with Kiwilaw's help, ask the estate's lawyer to use Kiwilaw's service ($390 to law firms, plus fees for their own attendances and disbursements).
