The deadline for submitting claims is October 2, 2025. After this date, the estates will be distributed based on the claims and interests that have been formally acknowledged. #### Anticipated Questions **What should one do if they believe they have a claim?** Individuals should send written particulars of their claim to the respective contacts provided in each notice before the specified deadline. **What happens if a claim is not submitted by the deadline?** Claims not submitted by October 2, 2025 will not be considered in the distribution of the estate. These notices are published under the Trustee Act 1925 and are essential for ensuring that all potential claims are addressed before estate distribution. Those who believe they may be affected are encouraged to act promptly. For more detailed information on each case or to view the full notices, please refer to the provided links.
