Probate - grandmother made a registered will Probate - grandmother made a registered will

1 year ago

My grandmother made a registered will before her death in which she stated that after her death her properties will be transferred to grandfather and upon my grandfather's death it will be transferred to her sons.

Now after her death, my grandfather wants to immediately transfer the properties which he got from his wife through will to his sons.

Whether probate of will is required before the properties can be registered in the name of sons? Please guide me through complete steps.

A.Dear Client

A probate of will is not required in this case as the will is registered. The grandfather can transfer the properties to his sons without any hindrance, but he needs to make sure that there are no pending legal issues or disputes regarding the properties. He also needs to follow the necessary legal formalities and get the properties registered in the name of his sons.Please seek an expert advice over this matter.
