Isle of Man Probate | What we do

We can submit an application for a formal grant. If the court approves it, this will give the executor or administrator the necessary authority to handle debts and collect and divide any remaining assets.

There are two types of application which can be used depending on the circumstances.

Grant of Probate

Where there is a Will, it will name the executor. The executor will then need to apply for a grant of probate. This gives the names person the authority to deal with the administration of the estate.

Grant of Letters of Administration

Where no Will has been written the next of kin or a close relative will need to apply for grant of letters of administration. These letters can then give the authority needed to deal with the administration of the estate.
