From pbl.legal: Obtaining a Grant of Probate in New South Wales allows an executor to manage and distribute a deceased person’s estate, confirming the validity of the will through the Supreme Court of NSW.

Executors must prepare necessary documents, such as the original will and death certificate, and follow specific procedures to submit their probate application, including paying applicable filing fees.

After the court issues the Grant of Probate, executors are responsible for identifying assets, settling debts, and distributing the estate according to the deceased’s wishes.
