Probate and Trust Administration

Guiding Families Through The Next Steps

Upon the death of an individual, we provide post-mortem administrative services, including:

  • Assisting with the handling of a trust or probate estate and the collection of assets

  • Payment of claims and ultimate payout of assets.

  • Determination and/or appraisal of assets for purposes of estate tax issues and distribution to beneficiaries.

  • Review and consideration of income and estate tax

  • Consequences and recommendations to minimize these taxes.

  • Preparation and filing of the decedent’s final income tax returns, the income tax returns of the estate and/or trust, and the federal estate tax return, if necessary.

Our probate/trust administration services are charged on an hourly basis as opposed to a percentage of the estate.
