When someone unfortunately passes away it is necessary for someone to take responsibility for handling their estate. This covers aspects such as the deceased person’s bank account, property, insurance policies, property, and other assets.
This process involves obtaining a Grant of Probate (where a valid will exists) or a Grant of Letters of Administration (where no valid will is available). These grants are a legal requirement that enables the executor or administrator to actively manage the deceased person’s estate, distributing the inheritance to the lawful beneficiaries.

I had a very pleasant experience engaging Mohd Firdaus as my legal representative to apply my Grant of Probate. He is proactive and diligent in his follow up with the relevant institutions. And I managed to get my Grant successfully without any hassle in less than 2 months. I’m truly grateful and appreciate Firdaus’ professionalism
I am grateful for the prompt service of PKWA Law and Mr Muhammad Firdaus in granting me the Letter of Administration. Everything was swift and hassle-free. The first session (which was free) was very helpful because he informed me of all the documents I need to collate before I can proceed. The legal fee is also one of the most affordable ones in Singapore. Thank you for the great service!
I went to PKWA for the selling and buying of my house previously. This time, mum passed away and we needed to apply for a letter of administration. I called PKWA and was assigned Jane. She is fantastic and super efficient.
She guided on the documents to bring to see her. A simple list. After the initial meetup (2weeks later), went to have oath taken. And 2weeks, letter of administration was ready. Super fast! I thank Jane for the excellent service and professionalism. She then advised on the next course of action of HDB area office, open an estate bank account etc. Wonderful! Thank you.
Firdaus has once again outperformed and secured the Grant of Probate in an unbelievable time frame. This despite the challenges of tracing the deceased’s assets.
