Do you need to create a will or update an existing one?
Find help with Super Lawyers.
Estate planning and probate attorneys primarily advise clients in the creation of wills and plans to distribute inheritance assets.
Probate is the legal process of determining the validity of a will or distributing a decedent’s assets if a will does not exist.
There are specific probate courts designated for handling these matters that usually involve an administrative rather than a litigious process.
Probate courts also settle a decedent’s financial liabilities.
Use Super Lawyers to hire a local lawyer to help you create a will and proactively plan for the eventual distribution of your assets.
You'll be glad you did.
