Probate & Estate Administration

When an individual passes away, family members are often left with the task of settling their loved one’s estate. As an executor or administrator of an estate, you face numerous obligations and responsibilities that can feel overwhelming. The probate and estate administration process can raise many legal and procedural questions, making it essential to seek sound, reliable advice.

In New Jersey, probate is the legal process of validating a will and ensuring that the deceased’s assets are distributed according to their wishes. If an individual dies without a will, their estate will be administered according to New Jersey’s intestacy laws, which dictate how assets are distributed among surviving relatives. Our firm represents executors and administrators, guiding them through this process with compassion and experience.

We help you navigate the complexities of probating wills, collecting and managing asset inventories, settling outstanding debts, and distributing estate assets to beneficiaries. Our goal is to provide you with the support and guidance necessary for you to effectively and efficiently fulfill your duties as executor or administrator.

By working closely with you, we strive to simplify the probate process and provide clear guidance at every step. Contact us today to learn how we can assist you.
