The attorneys in our Probate and Trust Administration Group assume responsibility for the often-complex process of settling estates ranging in size from the relatively modest to multi-million-dollar estates. This includes the preparation and filing of documentation with the probate court, the collection and appraisal of estate assets, the payment of debts and expenses, the preparation and filing of estate tax and fiduciary income tax returns, post-mortem tax planning, and the distribution of assets to the beneficiaries. Our attorneys and paralegals have many years of experience in providing these services in a thoughtful and efficient manner designed to minimize stress on family members.
Our attorneys often act in a fiduciary capacity, serving as trustees of both revocable and irrevocable trusts that we help establish for our clients. In our role as trustee, we give personal attention to the needs of trust beneficiaries while paying careful attention to the investment of trust assets and keeping in mind the goals and objectives of the individual who established the trust.
