PROBATE & ESTATES PLANNING
Probate and estate planning law in Jamaica involves the legal processes for managing and distributing a person’s estate after their death. Estate planning ensures that an individual’s assets are allocated according to their wishes, typically through the creation of wills, trusts, and other legal documents. Probate is the court-supervised procedure that validates these documents, settles debts, and distributes the remaining assets to beneficiaries. These laws are designed to provide clarity, reduce conflicts among heirs, and ensure a smooth transfer of property and assets.
