Estate and Trust Administration
When clients pass away, we assist family members, beneficiaries and fiduciaries to ensure that they are advised of their rights and obligations and that the estate is properly, efficiently, and promptly administered. Where necessary or appropriate, we advise clients regarding potential and actual litigation regarding estates, trusts and related matters. In the course of representing estates, we probate the will (or initiate an administration proceeding if there is no will), and we help to marshal, preserve and value all of the decedent’s assets. We also prepare all necessary estate tax returns and advise our clients on related income tax matters.
