The legal process to obtain appointment of a Personal Representative (a “P.R.”, formerly known as Executor) and to probate a Will can be daunting. What’s more, following appointment, a P.R. can face a myriad of legal and accounting obligations. We represent and guide our P.R. clients from day one through closing the estate to ensure they have satisfied all of their obligations and administered the estate in a fair and transparent manner, consistent with the intent of the friend or family member who has passed away.
We also represent beneficiaries of estates who have concerns that a P.R. may not be handling the estate as required by the law or in the beneficiary’s best interests. In these cases, we use the many tools available under the law to hold the P.R. accountable to the beneficiaries.
