If you believe you are owed money or otherwise have a valid interest in the estate, it is essential to act within the legally required time limits.

Your Next Steps

  1. Assess Your Position: Determine whether you are a creditor, beneficiary, or someone else with a potential claim on the estate.
  2. Gather Documentation: Compile any relevant paperwork (e.g., invoices, receipts, correspondence) to support your claim or objection.
  3. Seek Legal Advice: Lodging a caveat or submitting a formal claim can be time-sensitive. A Queensland estate lawyer can assist you with the proper procedures.
