📄 Does every estate have to go through probate? Not necessarily.

For qualifying Indiana estates, a small estate affidavit can provide a simpler way to collect and transfer property without opening a formal probate estate. For deaths after June 30, 2022, this option may be available when the qualifying probate estate is $100,000 or less.

There are important requirements—including a 45-day waiting period for most personal property. BB&C’s latest blog explains the process in plain English and when this option may apply.

📍 Planning a move when children and a custody agreement are involved? There are rules to follow.

In Indiana, certain relocations require advance notice to the court and the other parent—and if the other parent objects, the court may need to determine whether the move is in the child’s best interests.

From notice deadlines to custody and parenting-time considerations, BB&C’s latest blog explains what parents should know before moving day.

🏡 Inherited property? Here’s how the “step-up in basis” could save you thousands in taxes.

When someone inherits property, the tax owed on future sales often depends on the property’s value at the time of inheritance—not when it was originally purchased. This powerful tax rule can significantly reduce your capital gains liability.

Our latest blog explains:
✔️ What the step-up in basis means
✔️ How it protects heirs from major tax burdens
✔️ Why smart planning matters for your estate

🚗⚠️ What counts as a personal injury case?

Many people think personal injury law only applies to car accidents—but it covers much more. Common examples include:

🚘 Car accidents
🏢 Slip and fall injuries
🐕 Dog bites
🏥 Medical malpractice
⚙️ Product liability claims

No matter the type of accident, the key question is often the same: Was someone else's negligence responsible for your injury?

Our latest blog explores common personal injury case examples and what it takes to pursue a claim.
