The problem

When a client dies, the legal work is only part of the load families carry

Contacting organisations one by one can be a time consuming process that adds cost to your clients.
Updating notifications manually can be a time consuming process.
Manual processes are hard to share across the firm.
Access to official Death Registry information can take time and add cost.
Every firm has developed their own processes and there is no agreed "best practice."

The solution

Introducing the myTrove Lawyers Portal

The myTrove Lawyers Portal is designed for lawyers and legal firms managing deceased Estates. It helps you manage client matters where death notifications need to be delivered across banks, insurers, utilities, government-linked services, membership and subscription-based organisations and other organisations connected to the deceased person's life.

Coordinate notifications to 200+ organisations from one place — helping families move through estate wrap-up with less confusion and fewer delays.
