Being appointed as an executor or personal representative is an important role, but it can also feel like a daunting responsibility, particularly when assets are located outside Ireland. At a time when families are often grieving, dealing with different legal systems, probate procedures, tax requirements and administrative processes across multiple jurisdictions can quickly become complex, time-consuming and, frankly, not something most people would pick out of choice to get involved in.

Our International Private Client team has extensive experience helping Irish executors, personal representatives and their advisers navigate the challenges of cross-border estate administration. Whether the estate includes property, investments, bank accounts or shareholdings overseas, we provide clear, practical advice and hands-on support to help make the process as smooth and straightforward as possible.
