Estate Planning and Probate

Estate planning and probate can be complex matters

When decedents die without probate wills, estate settlement can be prolonged and contentious. Inheritance property is distributed according to state probate laws and may not be in the manner the decedent wanted. Therefore, it is crucial for everyone aged 18 and over to execute a final Will and establish beneficiaries to receive assets upon death. Where the decedent left a valid Last Will and Testament, the legal proceeding is called a Probate, and the estate is distributed according to the terms of the will, to the beneficiaries named in the will.

Here are some of the cases we handle routinely:
  • Adoptions
  • Conservatorships
  • Durable Power of Attorney
  • Patient Advocate
  • Guardianships
  • Medicaid Planning
  • Probate Proceedings
  • Wills
  • Trusts
  • Living Wills
