WHAT IS PROBATE?
Losing a loved one is difficult enough without the added stress of having to make important financial decisions while grieving. The duties and responsibilities of probating a loved one’s estate can often feel overwhelming.
We've all heard horror stories of the perils of navigating the probate system. It is important that you meet with an experienced probate attorney before you get started, as the decisions you make in the beginning set the course for the entire process.
