The solution

Introducing the myTrove Lawyers Portal

The myTrove Lawyers Portal is designed for lawyers and legal firms supporting clients after death. It helps you manage client matters where death notifications need to be delivered across banks, insurers, utilities, government-linked services, subscriptions, memberships 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.

The problem

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

Families are often grieving, overwhelmed, and unsure what needs to happen next. At the same time, you may be managing probate, estate wrap-up, family provision matters, superannuation, financial accounts, utilities, insurance, memberships and other connected obligations — and the notification process can quickly become fragmented.

Every organisation is different

Different organisations need different information, forms and proof — turning one death into dozens of separate, inconsistent processes.

Unknown accounts & services

Families may not know every account or service the deceased held, leaving gaps you only discover late in the matter.

Repeated, sensitive follow-ups

You're left coordinating duplicated paperwork, chasing replies and holding emotionally sensitive conversations — when clarity matters most.

The outcome

A smoother process for lawyers. A gentler experience for families.

Instead of handling organisation-by-organisation notifications manually, you use myTrove to notify relevant organisations through one platform — reducing duplicated effort and making the estate administration process easier to navigate, with more structure, visibility and ease.
