This is practical guidance, not legal advice
What To Do After Loss provides administrative checklists to help you understand what tasks may need to be done after a bereavement. It is not a substitute for professional legal, financial, or estate planning advice. Every situation is different, and for complex estates we recommend consulting a solicitor or financial adviser. If you are unsure about your obligations, please seek professional guidance.
Frequently asked questions
No - and we're upfront about that. What To Do After Loss provides structured administrative guidance: a clear list of what needs to be done, who to contact, and in what order. It's designed to help you navigate the process without missing anything important. For complex estates, legal disputes, or situations where you're unsure of your obligations, we'd always recommend speaking with a solicitor or financial adviser.
You receive a personalised PDF checklist built from your answers to the questionnaire. It covers only the areas relevant to your situation - filtered by the modules you select, any special circumstances you flag, and the State or Territory involved. The checklist is formatted for printing, emailed to your inbox immediately after purchase, and yours to keep and share with family.
Your checklist is generated and emailed to you within minutes of completing the form and payment. If it hasn't arrived within 10 minutes, check your spam folder. If you still can't find it, visit our contact page and we'll resend it promptly.

Select the State or Territory where the deceased person lived and held their main assets. Estate administration, probate, and government notifications are generally handled according to the jurisdiction of the deceased, not the executor nor next of kin. If assets are spread across multiple States, your checklist will still cover the core national tasks - and we'd suggest consulting a solicitor for any State-specific property matters.
