Probate Administration
After someone dies, the person they named as the executor of their estate in their last will and testament must file the will in probate court and oversee the process of distributing assets to beneficiaries, along with other duties. Executors or estate administrators will need to meet a number of requirements during this process, and they may also need to address issues related to contested wills or estates.

We work with executors to follow the correct procedures during the probate process, ensuring that a person's wishes will be carried out correctly.

We work with family members to address situations where they may believe that a will is invalid or that an executor has failed to uphold their loved one's wishes.

Existing businesses may also benefit from a change in structure, including when adding new partners or investors. We can help business owners understand how to structure a company in a way that protects them from liability and provides the best tax benefits.
In addition to assisting with formation and restructuring, we provide legal help with a number of other business law matters.
