Frequently Asked Questions
-
We generally have Letters of Authority within four weeks and are able to oversee asset distribution in four to five months. In some cases, where there are disputes between beneficiaries or real estate must be sold, the process may take longer.
-
The central role of a probate attorney is to help families manage the settlement of a loved one’s estate. In some cases that means serving in an advisory capacity, offering guidance to help you make informed decisions. In others, a more hands-on approach is appropriate, with the attorney directly assisting with validating wills, obtaining Letters of Authority, resolving outstanding debts, and more.
-
The cost depends on the complexity of the estate and the issues that come up during the process. We encourage you to schedule a consultation so we can have a candid conversation about your situation, outline a recommended path forward, and give you a clear estimate of the timeline and expected costs.
