Providing legal services in this modern world requires significant attention to digital privacy and security. In addition to providing affordable expert legal advice, our clients' trust in our technical competence is paramount.
— Benjamin Joffe, 2022

Benjamin is one of National Probate’s directors, responsible for all things “tech”. He also assists with the day to day operations of National Probate’s uncontested applications department, facilitating the granting of hundreds of probate, letters of administration and reseal applications across Australia.

Over the last 6 years Benjamin has helped create and design National Probate’s software and operation platform, allowing our estate solicitors and paralegals to manage the high volumes of applications, at high standards, being submitted to Australia’s various state Supreme Courts. This has allowed the National Probate team to spend more time focusing on client care, than being bogged down in precedents and paperwork. Due to his involvement in the world of probate during this time, Benjamin has developed an intricate knowledge of probate and administration laws and process, often exceeding that of non-specialist suburban solicitors.

Benjamin's recent client testimonials:

We found the staff working in this organisation truly helpful in achieving the granting of probate for my mother's estate and would have no hesitation in highly recommending Ben and his team to achieve the outcome you desire.

The term "Good Old fashioned Service" does not get mentioned much these days but National Probate and Estates Group is different as they provide it in bucket loads and I can't praise Ben, Gennadi and the team highly enough. Nothing was too much trouble, the process was very smooth and their response to any questions was always promptly and professionally answered. It was such a pleasure dealing with this team at an extremely reasonable fixed fee with no hidden surprises. I highly recommend anyone looking for an estate law firm to contact National Probate and Estates Group as you will be pleasantly surprised.
