Mirror Wills are two separate Wills, one for each partner, containing the same or closely aligned instructions regarding the distribution of their respective estates. As the name suggests, each Will reflects the other in its provisions.
Letters of Administration with the Will Annexed means that there is a valid Will, but no executor has been appointed in the Will, or the appointed executor has died or is unwilling or unable to act.
When an estate appears to have more debts than assets, it’s understandable to wonder why anyone would take on the task of administering it. While finalising the deceased’s affairs is an important reason, there are also several benefits to doing so.
