Estate & Probate Administration

If estate planning is the process of designing a playbook, estate administration occurs when the playbook is put into action. Probate is a court-supervised process for distributing the individually owned assets of a deceased person. Assets are distributed to beneficiaries in accordance to the instructions written in the person's will.

Estate administration can be complex, and the people you have designated must have competent and experienced counsel to guide them through the process. They must make important decisions, sometimes very quickly and with little warning. Ultimately they must divide and distribute your property to those individuals or charities you identified in your will or trust agreement.

The estate administration process carries a lot of responsibilities. We can help guide your loved ones through the process as sensitively and completely as possible, and we will try to make it as straightforward and efficient as possible.
