Probate is a time-consuming, expensive, and complicated process. In addition, most of the information involved in a probate is public. The fees are set by statute and the laws determine how much money will be paid for an attorney and an executor. However, with proper estate planning, I help my clients to avoid probate altogether.

People almost always prefer to avoid probate. But if probate is unavoidable, I will help you through the probate from beginning to end. Throughout a probate there may be family feuds and conflicts among beneficiaries. In difficult situations, court supervision can actually be helpful to keep feuding family members in line and to protect the executor from liability. I can help clients throughout the probate process to identify assets and beneficiaries and help you complete the probate correctly.
