Trusts And Estates

Estate Probate And Administration

Dealing with the distribution of property after the death of a loved one can be an emotional and complex process. The estate administration process during the probate of an estate encompasses many tasks, and without the help of an experienced probate lawyer, may prove difficult, especially for grieving relatives. We work to provide the legal knowledge and information necessary to complete the probate process as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

During probate, there is always the potential for disputes involving assets as they are distributed between beneficiaries. Pelella Law P.C. provides experience and knowledge to resolve these disputes as efficiently as possible. In many instances, there may be several options for you and the other beneficiaries that are not immediately apparent. We can discuss these options with you and explain their impact on you and the assets in question.
