DEATH AND PAPERWORK: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Dealing with the death of a loved one is overwhelming and often also comes with a mountain of paperwork. Wills, probate, executors, legal responsibilities—it can feel overwhelming at an already difficult time. Some things can be organised well in advance to save stress at an already stressful time.

In this workshop a legal educator from Community Law Canterbury (CLC) will address issues including:
- what should go in a will and how often should it be updated?
- how to write a valid will to ensure probate will be granted in court/ that it will not be challenged
- what do I do with a will once it is written?
- how to find/ access a family member's will who dies suddenly?
- what happens if you don't have a will?
- what is an executor?
- how and when should I appoint an executor?
- what are my responsibilities if I am someone's executor?

Whether you're planning ahead or managing someone else’s estate, this session offers clear, practical advice to help you feel more confident and prepared. Come along and get informed.
