Law society calls for easier probate for grieving families

The probate and inheritance tax process should be made easier for grieving families, according to the Law Society.

The society has submitted 22 detailed recommendations for changes to the taxation and probate systems, saying it would alleviate social inequities and ensure clarity and certainty for citizens relating to family tax matters.

The organisation has also called for changes to the system to “ensure Ireland remains an attractive option for international investment post-Brexit”.
