How Relaw runs estate administration matters.

Common work product

Inventory · Notice to Creditors · Waiver of Citation · Final Accounting · Distribution Receipt

Examples only. Relaw generates from the firm's own configured Word and PDF templates; no legal forms are bundled.

  1. 01

    The inventory is the matter.

    Assets, collection status, and values stay structured. Notices and receipts pull from the same list you are already keeping.

  2. 02

    Beneficiaries do not get retyped.

    Who is entitled to notice and who signs a receipt is on the file. The next document uses those names.

  3. 03

    Quiet files still get worked.

    Creditor periods and missing titles stall administrations. Automations draft the next notice or chase. You confirm before it leaves.

The single-pane practice

Make the administration itself the matter record.

Assets, claims, receipts, expenses, beneficiary communications, tax coordination, and distribution decisions should not develop competing versions across spreadsheets and folders. Relaw keeps the fiduciary operating record connected to the work.

Work that used to live apart

Asset spreadsheets

Claim logs

Notice, response, payment, and release status

Beneficiary lists

Shares, updates, distributions, and receipts

Status email

The matter lifecycle

Run the whole estate administration matter here.

The record compounds as the matter moves. Facts, files, decisions, communications, and follow-through do not reset at every stage.

  1. 01

    Control

    Establish the fiduciary operating record.

    Onboard the fiduciary, secure property, establish accounts and controls, and define responsibilities.

    In Relaw: Instructions, meetings, files, and assigned work stay on one matter.

  2. 02

    Marshal

    Know what is collected and what is not.

    Discover, classify, value, collect, and manage assets while tracking missing titles and external institutions.

    In Relaw: Every asset carries its status and supporting source documents.

  3. 03

    Resolve

    Connect claims, tax work, and beneficiary communication.

    Manage expenses, claims, liquidity, appraisals, tax handoffs, and reserves.

    In Relaw: The team sees what blocks the next distribution or filing.

  4. 04

    Distribute

    Close from the same record you maintained.

    Prepare accounting support, approvals, releases, distributions, and closing work.

    In Relaw: Firm documents and updates use the current beneficiary and asset record.

The matter record

Structure the facts the work keeps reusing.

Estate Administration work is not a folder of files. It is a changing set of people, dates, decisions, evidence, and obligations that every later draft depends on.

01

Asset inventory

A live view from discovery through disposition.

  • Ownership and value
  • Collection status
  • Appraisal source
  • Disposition and proceeds
02

Claims & cash

The operational facts behind settlement of the estate.

  • Claims and priority
  • Receipts and expenses
  • Reserves
  • Supporting records
03

Beneficiaries & distributions

Entitlement, communication, and completion.

  • Governing share
  • Interim distributions
  • Final distribution
  • Receipt and release

Matter-grounded AI
