The Courts Service has expanded its Courts Portal to receive its first probate applications on a pilot basis. At this pilot stage, the Courts Service is working very closely with a small number of solicitors to register them on the new Courts Portal to support the filing of probate applications online. The purpose of the pilot is to evaluate and validate the initial applications submitted via the Portal by solicitors in the Dublin area, ensuring they are accurately received and effectively processed by the Probate Office. The purpose of the pilot is to learn, adjust and improve based on user and Probate Office feedback, before deploying to the rest of the country.
