Contested Passing of Accounts

Passing of Estate Accounts
During the estate administration process, it may become necessary for an executor to pass their accounts. This is a court process whereby the actions and transactions undertaking during an estate administration and the compensation requested by the executor are examined by the court.
Understanding Contested Passing of Accounts
These disputes may arise due to:
- Allegations of Mismanagement: Concerns about improper handling of estate assets.
- Disputes Among Beneficiaries: Conflicts over distributions or decisions made by the executor.
- Lack of Transparency: Executors failing to provide detailed records or explanations.
- Compensation: Disputes regarding the appropriate level of compensation payable to an executor or trustee.
