What is a Deceased Estate?
In Brisbane, a deceased estate includes assets that a person owned before their death.
An asset is anything with current or potential value, including tangible property, stocks and shares, and intellectual property.
Most deceased persons leave a will instructing how they want their property divided after death. If there is no valid will, the estate assets will be divided according to the intestacy provisions in the Succession Act 1981.
