We represented a client whose mother had passed away. The client came to our office with an offer having been made by the representation for the estate.
Upon reviewing the material involved, and with our specialist opinion, we were able to identify that the offer made, while a good offer, was not reasonable under the circumstances.
After a very short period of approximately six (6) months we were able to put together an offer and organise a settlement conference so as to secure an extra 27% of the estate, a significant increase that our client would NOT have received had she accepted the first offer made by the estate.
For this reason it is essential that you do not accept the first offer made by the Estate and seek legal advice.
