About this app

The administration of a deceased estate is a heavily regulated area and there are many aspects that can cause irreversible damage if misunderstood.

The View Legal Estate Admin app is designed to allow the user to narrow down some of the broad areas that might be relevant in relation to the administration of any deceased estate.

Depending on the answers provided, the app generates a free white paper containing general information about the key issues that are often relevant.

This app is another in a series of apps released by specialist estate planning firm View Legal apps. View now have apps in areas such as estate planning, business succession, directors duties and SMSFs.
