SuperGold card holders - free 'Guide to Estate Administration - Where There's a Will and a Grant of Probate' - for clients who use Kiwilaw's service to obtain a grant of probate. (Otherwise $49.)
If you prefer the assurance of using the lawyer who holds the will, ask them to use Kiwilaw's new 'Probate for Lawyers' service ($390) to prepare the documents, unless they can do it cheaper themselves. (You will also have to pay for their interview time and other related attendances, but it should still save you $$$ while maintaining the continuity of having their services.) The top 'Read More' link will take you to the page you need to show your lawyer. The bottom 'Read More' link takes you to the page with more information for clients.

Farmlands extra charges

Jan from Swannanoa - Ohoka

Hi Everyone. Please check your Farmlands account as last month I didn't and had over $500 extra taken out for stuff I didn't buy. Was told it was probably dairy farm workers coming in without a card and just quoting numbers? Still waiting to get it back. Hope yours is OK.
