What are Letters of Administration?



If a person dies without leaving a Will an application will need to be made to the Court which is similar to applying for a Grant of Probate. This application is referred to as Letters of Administration.

As there is no Will and no executor, it is usually the next of kin that takes on the role on dealing with a deceased person’s Estate. They cannot do this until a Grant of Letters of Administration is granted by the Court. Once Letters of Administration are granted it is essentially the same as a Grant of Probate.
