Families may be surprised to learn that a valid will does not automatically transfer everything after someone passes away. Sometimes, probate administration may still be required before assets can be properly distributed.

Probate administration is the court-supervised process that helps:

🔹Verify the validity of a will.

🔹Identify heirs and beneficiaries.

🔹Gather and inventory estate assets.

🔹Notify creditors and review claims.

🔹Distribute property according to the will or state law when there is no will.

Probate is more than paperwork. It is an important legal process designed to ensure that assets are transferred correctly and that outstanding obligations are properly addressed before distribution occurs.

Trying to navigate probate without legal guidance can lead to delays, mistakes, and unnecessary stress during an already difficult time. Contact our firm for guidance through probate administration or probate litigation.

If it has been several years since your last review, contact our office to discuss whether your estate plan may need an update.

For many families, a vacation home or timeshare is connected to family traditions, special memories, and time spent together over the years.

Twenty-five years ago, the world changed, and the courage, resilience, and unity that followed reminded us of what we are capable of in our darkest moments.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
