Probate application
Available nowWe guide you through the Supreme Court probate process and generate every court-required form — correctly, automatically. No solicitor needed for most estates.
For the ones who are left
When someone dies, the administration doesn't wait. Afterly guides Australian executors through every step — from the court application to closing the estate — at a fraction of the cost of a solicitor.
You're named executor in a will. You're grieving. And now you're legally responsible for an unfamiliar, time-sensitive administrative process — often with no guidance, and solicitor professional fees that start from $700 — before court costs.
Afterly exists to change that. We guide you through every task in plain language, generate the documents you need, and tell you exactly what comes next.
