Probate Made Simple for New Zealanders

“This sounded too good to be true after quotes starting at $2500 plus GST for this service, but I checked the Law Society website and Rion is registered there. His own website has clearly worded and very reasonable terms of service, so I made contact. I was impressed with the speed at which he got back to me, and how professionally everything was handled. He prepared the paperwork to reflect my mum's change of name in her last year of life — something her own lawyer had neglected to follow through on. Rion and Abby followed up with a video and very straightforward instructions on how to prepare everything for submission to the High Court. We couriered the documents on 13th March and received the Probate grant today (25th March). We are extremely happy with the service provided and can confidently recommend Rion and his team for this service. Rion and Abby have made a stressful time far easier to manage — thank you both.”

“Probate Service Provider – Highly Recommended. I am so grateful I found Simply Probate. I wasn't even aware that such a service existed. The team (Rion and Abby) was outstanding. After an initial free 15 minute conversation they provided clear instructions and ensured the entire process was transparent, efficient, and seamless to follow. Communication was fantastic, with quick, professional responses that kept me informed every step of the way. Their fees were also a major highlight—incredibly reasonable and transparent. They offer a far more competitive alternative compared to traditional lawyer billing, which gave me complete confidence in the final cost and no unwelcome surprises. If you are navigating the complexities of probate in New Zealand, I wholeheartedly recommend their service. I received the Grant of Probate in less than two weeks - amazing and thank you Simply Probate!”

“Simply Probate is a breath of fresh air in the world of legal companies. I am so glad such a firm exists. Their service is great. They respond promptly and do an outstanding job. Their price is also very good. More importantly I like the business model that they use. Their process is very transparent. While they generate the application for probate document based on data I entered in an online form, they allow me to submit the application to probate and therefore I am in charge. This is such a contrast to other legal firms where you have no control over what happens and pay a very high fee.”

“Rion Norris provided an excellent service, exceeding our expectations. We were dealing with a small estate where the deceased and his surviving spouse lived in Europe, but where we had to obtain Probate in NZ in order to deal with a single asset. Rion has a very efficient process which made everything happen without hiccup. His charge was well below the competitive quotes of other law firms and represented excellent value. I have no hesitation in recommending his services.”
