PROBATE PROCEEDINGS

Losing a loved one is always difficult.  In the event you lose a loved one who didn’t have a clear directive in place before their passing, their estate may need to through the court-managed probate process in order for you to gain access to and transfer their assets. Depending on the nature of the estate, probate cases can be straightforward or complex. From filing a petition to appoint a Personal Representative to collecting and managing the assets towards preparation of the final accounting, DG can advise and represent Executors/Personal Representatives, Trust Administrators, Beneficiaries, Guardians and Conservators throughout the entire probate process. No matter who we work with, our goal is to preserve the estate, navigate the probate process with an efficient, cost-effective strategy, all while maintaining family harmony.
