Wills and Probate

There are times when disputes arise among surviving heirs that create significant problems in settling the estate.  In such a situation, the advice and guidance of an experienced attorney is invaluable in seeing such difficulties through to resolution.

As you get older, having accumulated assets, such as a house, retirement funds, or a business, you think about passing on your good fortune to your loved ones. This is the time to consult with my office for a will so that your wishes are carried out smoothly and efficiently.

If a loved one has died and you are named as executor in a will, before the estate can be settled you will need to prove up the will and have the court approve you as executor. This requires filing papers with the court and a hearing. My office is skilled and ready to see the process through expeditiously and at a reasonable cost.
