Need to reseal a UK or Australian grant of probate in NZ? Don't pay $1350

Director / lawyer from Kiwilaw

I discovered yesterday that the Public Trust charges $1350 plus the High Court $50 fee, to reseal in New Zealand a grant of probate or letters of administration made in the UK or Australia.

I discovered yesterday that the Public Trust charges $1350 plus the High Court $50 fee, to reseal in New Zealand a grant of probate or letters of administration made in the UK or Australia.
I was a tad surprised.
This is a straightforward process, nowhere near as complicated as applying from scratch for a grant of administration in New Zealand.
I charge $390 all up, including the High Court fee and mail/courier costs. And that is consistent with my overall guideline hourly rate of $300+GST. (I have no idea what other lawyers charge.) Just letting you know, in case you know someone who needs to know....

Pleas for Government help to allow management of Christchurch's bus service to be transferred to the city council have fallen on deaf ears.

A letter co-signed by Christchurch mayor Lianne Dalziel and Environment Canterbury chairman Steve Lowndes asked for swift changes to be made to the Local Government Act, which currently blocks the transfer of public transport responsibilities from ECan to the city council.

But Transport Minister Phil Twyford said in a letter sent more than a month later that he had no intention to fast-track the changes needed.

Do you think management of the city's bus services should change? Read the full story by clicking the link below and share your thoughts in the comments. (Please write NFP if you don't want your comments used by Stuff/The Press).
