Estate Administration

We understand the complications and emotional sensitivity associated with the probate process and administration of the estate. Through a thoughtful and timely approach, we provide families with guidance and representation before probate courts, representation when a guardianship is necessary, and assistance in the administration of estates.

Guardianship

We not only administer guardianships for private individuals, but we also negotiate minor settlements for insurers and their insureds. We advise of all conflicts to ensure that appropriate releases are binding and done without violating the law and ethics. Additionally, we have experienced attorneys and paralegals to handle proceedings involving removals of guardians and personal representatives who breach their fiduciary duties.
