The firm provides complete probate and administrative services including representing estates in Surrogate’s Court, guiding trustees and executors in connection with their administration of trusts and estates, and helping them to minimize administration expenses.

Services include the commencement of court proceedings to probate a decedent’s will, working with family members to administer a loved one’s estate when he or she dies, with or without a will, working to marshal and dispose of assets, assisting accountants with the preparation and filing of required tax returns, and the finalization of the estate’s administration in Surrogate’s Court. Where required for the administration of an estate we deal with real estate transfers, and litigation.
