Probate and Peace of Mind

Probate is the first legal step that takes place after a person dies. It includes the validation of a will, the inventorying of property, the appraisal of property, the paying of debts and the distribution of remaining property as directed by a will. If you have a will, you may designate a person as your executor. This individual is responsible for carrying out the terms of your will after you pass away.

Since probate matters typically involve lengthy paperwork and multiple court appearances, it is in your best interests to consult with a skilled probate lawyer.

Mr. Sager is adept in handling the following probate and probate-related issues, including:

Probate and estate administration
Elder Law
Estate planning, including preparation of wills, trusts, powers of attorney, living wills and health care proxies
Judicial accountings
Guardianship Proceedings
Surrogate’s Court litigation

The staff treats me with respect and kindness, especially Viola at the front desk, who is a joy to interact with. Although my case took a long time, I always felt supported and experienced professionalism and tenacity.

If you need anything, especially for a divorce, I recommend contacting this law firm. Thank you all again for your determination and hard work; it is much appreciated.
