My brother was a Gold Coast resident. He told me he had made a new will or had made changes to his original will. If a different solicitor was responsible for the making of a new will or amending the original will how would the solicitor know that my brother had passed away? My understanding is that the second will had different beneficiaries to the first will but do not know which company of solicitors was used if indeed the second will was lodged with a solicitor.
