The Letter of Special Administration is utilized in England and Wales when circumstances require a targeted approach to estate administration. This document becomes necessary when standard probate or administration isn't suitable, such as when dealing with specific assets, time-sensitive matters, or situations where full administration powers aren't required. The Letter of Special Administration grants precisely defined powers to handle particular aspects of an estate, making it especially useful in complex estates or when immediate action is needed for certain assets while broader estate matters remain pending.
