WillJini’s Probate service helps executors and legal heirs obtain a court-issued Probate for a Will. Probate is the legal process through which a court confirms that a Will is genuine and grants authority to the executor to administer and distribute the estate of the deceased.
If a bank, property authority, or financial institution has asked for Probate before transferring assets, it becomes legally necessary to complete the process properly. WillJini provides structured assistance to ensure the Probate application is prepared and filed correctly.

Probate is a legal certificate issued by a competent court under the Indian Succession Act that confirms the validity and enforceability of a deceased person’s Will.
Once Probate is granted, the executor named in the Will receives formal legal authority to administer and distribute assets according to the Will. Probate provides legal certainty and helps reduce the risk of future objections or disputes.
When Is Probate Required
Probate is required when a Will needs formal court recognition before assets can be transferred or administered.
It is commonly required when:
Immovable property is involved
There is a possibility of dispute among heirs
Banks or financial institutions insist on court validation
The executor requires protection from future legal challenges
Even where Probate is not mandatory by law, institutions may still demand it for high-value assets.
Who Should Apply for Probate
This service is recommended for executors or family members responsible for implementing a Will.
It is suitable for:
Executors named in a Will
Families handling high-value or immovable assets
Cases where institutions require court confirmation
Situations where legal certainty is necessary before asset transfer
Probate helps executors carry out their role with legal backing.
What Probate Authorises
Probate legally confirms that the Will is genuine and authorises the executor to act on it.
It enables:
Legal recognition of the Will
Authority for the executor to distribute assets
Acceptance of the Will by banks, registrars, and institutions
Probate does not create new rights but validates the Will for execution.

I availed of Willjini's POA vetting service. The onboarding and initial connect with the core team was facilitated and supported by Adv. Shweta Ma'am. Details of professional fees were communicated upfront. No hidden costs. Adv. Manisha Ma'am guided me initially, providing vital technical inputs for key decision making. That helped a lot in determing a course of action and appropriate solution for my unqiue requirements. Adv. Riddhi Ma'am helped with reviewing the initial POA draft that I had prepared. The vetting process was thorough and meticulous. A significantly overhauled draft was shared with me and subsequently finalized after taking my inputs and recommendations. I required additional inputs at the time of registration that was further supported by Adv. Manisha and Adv. Riddhi. The registration process was ultimately successful and the POA is ready for pickup. I am grateful to the entire Willjini team for their inputs, guidance and support.
I walked into their office without prior appointment and was attended by Mr.Devvrat Unadkat promptly. He explained with clarity the procedure for drafting a will and also handed over a checklist.
I was assigned a team comprising a Advocate Alpana Rathi and Sucheta Bajaj. From the first meeting with Mr.Devvrat to drafting the will through whatsapp and email by Advocate Alpana and completing the registration formalities by Ms.Sucheta everything went smoothly. The whole team was efficient and professional and with their expertise I am relieved of finalizing and registering the will.
I would highly recommend to my family and friends.
I reached out to them because I needed a will drafted urgently for a house transfer, and I’m honestly so glad I chose them. The team really stepped up. Everything moved quickly and smoothly, but what I appreciated most was how well they communicated throughout the whole process. They kept me updated at every stage without me ever having to follow up. I told them I was in a rush, and they genuinely took that on board — no excuses, no delays, just solid work and a team effort. They got everything done on time and handled it all with care and professionalism. Really grateful for their help and would happily recommend them.
