What probate attorneys do
A probate attorney guides the executor or administrator of an estate through court supervised steps after a death: opening the estate, notifying creditors, inventorying assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing what remains. Many estates can move faster and with fewer mistakes with a lawyer's help.
When to call one
- You've been named executor or need to be appointed administrator
- The estate includes real estate, a business or out-of-state property
- Family members disagree, or creditors or the will are disputed
Questions to ask before you hire
- Does this estate need full probate, or is a simpler process available?
- How do you bill, and is the fee paid from the estate?
- What will I need to gather, and how long does the process usually take here?
