A death in the family is a difficult time which can bring unforeseen complications, interruption of daily life and strain on relationships. Let our law firm help you through this difficult time.
California Probate Court Process
If no proper estate planning was done, a dispute over inheritance, medical debt, or unclear responsibilities of an executor can lead to California Probate Court.
The California probate court process can be overwhelming and lengthy without proper guidance from an estate and trust attorney who specializes in probate law. Outside of sending out formal notices, organizing assets, bills and real estate, multiple documents must be correctly filed with probate court to adhere to state codes.
In some cases, litigation may arise from disputes within a family after a loved one passes away. In the case of will contests, the removal or appointment of executors, and/or the distribution of the probate estate, it would be wise to hire a probate attorney to help you file a lawsuit.
