When our brother died, we found ourselves stuck as we live abroad and do not know the ins and outs of the process. As we were not personally there, Adapt went above and beyond to finalise the estate, and handled all the administration with care. All our questions and concerns were addressed and we always felt well informed of the process.

Michelle

Johannesburg
The Adapt team were compassionate and went the extra mile to finalise my husbands estate. Cari helped me sell the house out of the estate and stood by me every step of the way.

Dorothy

Johannesburg
The fast turnaround time and the attention paid on my husband’s estate was comforting. I felt safe in the their hands and I was not treated as just another client. No stone was left unturned to finalise the estate.

Susan

Johannesburg
My father died with an Islamic will. We approached Adapt who ensured that my father’s last wishes were respected according to his religious wishes. It gave our family peace of mind that my father’s religious responsibility was achieved.

Johannesburg
My husband died without a will. We were married according to Customary Law. I struggled with the Master for nearly 5 years to get a Letter of Executorship. Adapt persistently pursued the Master until the letter was issued. I am grateful to Adapt and their no-nonsense approach.
