Estate Planning and Probate Practice
Our attorneys will help you protect and preserve your family’s assets, plan for the future and successfully navigate probate and surrogates’ courts.
Whether you have a large, complex estate or a simple one, our attorneys are thorough and thoughtful and will guide you through the process from decision-making to finalization of your full-suite of applicable estate planning documents.
Our attorneys also represent clients in probate and surrogate courts, which handle issues related to trusts and estates, following the terms of a will in many cases. However, if there is no will or estate plan, the assets are divided according to the laws of intestacy, and our attorneys are prepared to guide you and represent your interests in probate court or regarding any associated matters in state courts, federal courts and alternative dispute resolution forums.
We represent estate and trust planners, fiduciaries and beneficiaries, interested heirs and insurance companies.
We take the time to review the specific needs and wishes of each client and we are ready to patiently guide you in many estate-planning and probate practice areas including:
- Wills and Trusts
- Powers of Attorney
- Healthcare Proxies
- Asset Protection and Gift Planning
- Living Wills
