English to Portuguese Law/Patents Law (general) Wills & Probate

Deixo-vos aqui a explicação em Inglês para ajudar:

«Wills & Probate

A "grant of representation" is a document issued by the Court which enables the person(s) named in it to deal with the assets and belongings ['estate'] of the deceased. It allows the money in banks, building societies etc. to be collected, property to be sold or transferred and debts to be paid. There are three types of grant of representation:

"Probate": granted to the executors named in the Will
Letter of Administration [with Will]: granted to someone other than an executor when the deceased left a valid Will, and
Letters of Administration: granted when the deceased did not leave a Will.
All these documents give the same authority to administer the estate. Throughout this guidance, the word 'grant' will be used to describe all three.(http://www.courtservice.gov.uk/cms/3734_3736.htm)»

Será que existe alguma tradução para estes termos? É que alguns advogados chamam mesmo Probate, por exemplo.

PT EUROPEU, POR FAVOR!

Obrigada de antemão.

Cumprimentos,
