Estate Administration

Do you need to apply for probate or for estate administration? ​ Do you need help winding up an estate gone wrong?

Probate Issues

An executor or administrator often needs help with the probate process. We can prepare applications and pass accounts. Sometimes probate can be avoided. We can identify appropriate situations and guide the family.

Paralegal Team

The paralegal helping with the estate works exclusively on estates and estates only. Extensively trained, paralegal effort is used to generate probate applications, call in assets, prepare accounts, make distributions, and wind up estates.

  • Dealing with assets in foreign jurisdictions.
  • Responding to community property claims.
