Rion was extremely helpful and made the process as simple as possible. Any issues (with outside parties) Rion did not hesitate to provide advice and support to get the process done expediently. Everyone I spoke to said that the situation I was in would take months to get resolved, with Rion it was so quick, and no where near as long as others suggested. I highly recommend his services.

Probate Service Provider – Highly Recommended I am so grateful I found Simply Probate. I wasn't even aware that such a service existed. The team (Rion and Abby) was outstanding. After an initial free 15 minute conversation they provided clear instructions and ensured the entire process was transparent, efficient, and seamless to follow. Communication was fantastic, with quick, professional responses that kept me informed every step of the way. Their fees were also a major highlight—incredibly reasonable and transparent. They offer a far more competitive alternative compared to traditional lawyer billing, which gave me complete confidence in the final cost and no unwelcome surprises. If you are navigating the complexities of probate in New Zealand, I wholeheartedly recommend their service. I received the Grant of Probate in less than two weeks - amazing and thank you Simply Probate!

This service was amazing. Half the price of Dad's lawyer, super fast response... professional, positive friendly interactions, all lawyerly matters covered by then and clear instructions to do my bit...probate sorted. I cannot recommend this service highly enough. Probate feels like a big hurdle, official docs, affidavit, etc... these guys genuinely made it doable and there's nowhere else you'll pay this little. Really excellent all around.

Rion turned a stressful process into something very simple. Starting with the initial phone call, and the instructions I received were laid out so clearly, including a helpful video showing step by step. I would recommend this to service to anyone needing to complete a simple probate.
