Title ResearchBy Legal Futures’ Associate Title Research

Estate administration is rarely straightforward. Typically, there is an extensive list of tasks that need to be completed when administering a deceased person’s estate. You will need to gather in all the assets which can often involve handling overseas shares and funds.

Every country has different rules, processes and forms to verify, transfer or sell assets. These often complex methods can make it difficult to navigate the red tape in any given country and will undoubtedly slow down the process.
