Most personal representatives have rarely if ever probated a will and know little about the process. I can guide you through the complex probate process, including:
- Filing the will with the Minnesota probate court
- Developing the best strategy for fairly and expeditiously probating the estate
- Finding and collecting assets
- Closing and opening bank accounts
- Transferring assets from the deceased to the estate
- Paying estate taxes
- Valuing, managing, preserving and liquidating the estate
- Locating beneficiaries
- Hiring experts, when appropriate
Probate Disputes
Even in apparently straightforward estate cases, there are sometimes disputes between beneficiaries. My professional presence can calm the emotionally-charged process of probating a challenged will or disputed executor or judicial decision. When it is in the best interests of my clients to preserve cordial familial relationships, I am adept at mediating these disputes. When necessary, I assertively defend my client's beneficiary rights within the Minnesota probate court.
