Our Methodology

How we approach estate administration

Every estate matter at Moonridge begins with a thorough intake conversation where we understand the estate's composition, the family's immediate concerns, and the legal framework that applies. From there, we develop a clear action plan and share it with the client before work begins.

We work sequentially and systematically — gathering documents in the right order, coordinating third parties where needed, and maintaining court-ready records at every stage. Clients receive regular updates rather than silence punctuated by requests for signatures.

Our process is designed to be as predictable as estate administration can be, with honest communication when circumstances change the expected timeline.

Document Gathering & Engagement

Issue a written engagement letter; compile required documents per a structured checklist provided to the client.

3

Processing & Court Work

File applications, manage statutory requirements, coordinate valuers and third parties, maintain court correspondence.

Conclusion & Handover

Deliver completed documentation, brief clients on the outcome, and close the matter to legal completion.
