Estate Dispute and Administration Services
Navigating the death of a loved one can be tough enough without the huge wave of "death administration" that breaks right on top of the loss. Estate disputes compound the loss, grief and stress even further.
At Extension Legal, we deliver our estate administration and dispute services with compassion and recognised expertise under the steady hand of our Principal Lawyer, Chris Herrald.
