Probate Administration

A loved one passing often requires interaction with the probate courts to effectuate a transfer of assets to their heirs. Wills must be admitted to the probate court, assets collected and accounted for, and creditors given the opportunity to claim their right to repayment.

Don’t wait; probate administration only becomes more difficult with time. Competent counsel can reduce the difficulty and stress of dealing with the probate court, can often reduce claims by creditors, and ease families through what can often be a frustrating process.

We can assist with probate administration, small estates, determination of heirship suits, gaining access to safe deposit boxes, and any other necessary interaction with the probate courts.
