FAQ for Overseas Clients
Quick answers for Jamaicans living abroad
Can I handle probate from the US, UK or Canada without travelling?+
Yes. Most probate steps can be completed remotely with certified documents, notarised signatures and video consultations. We guide you on what to send and handle the filings in Jamaica.
What documents do I need to provide from abroad?+
We typically need certified IDs, proof of address and any original estate or property documents. If documents must be notarised or apostilled, we give country-specific instructions.
How do I sign Jamaican legal documents while overseas?+
Documents can usually be signed before a notary public or Jamaican consulate and returned by courier. We confirm the correct signing method for each document.
How long does conveyancing take if I am not in Jamaica?+
Timelines vary by title status and approvals, but we keep you updated at each milestone and can complete the process remotely once documents are received.
Do I need to appear in court for a divorce?+
Where both spouses agree, the matter is handled by counsel without requiring overseas clients to attend court. We confirm any attendance needs upfront.
