Estate Planning & Probate Administration
Making plans for your property and how it will transfer to your heirs can be one of the most difficult decisions you will have to make. Our attorneys will help you and/or your spouse look at important factors to decide which plan is best for your family. Taxation, liabilities, and familial structure may affect the manner in which you plan for your Estate. Properly executing these plans now will insure that your loved ones will go through the Probate process as painlessly as possible in the future. As always, we offer a free initial consultation to our Estate Planning/Probate clients in Cleveland and surrounding counties.
Our recent successes include:
- Negotiating a short sale for an Estate, so that the property would forgo a foreclosure action, and the bank would not attach any of the money left in the Estate.
- Successfully negotiating an Estate/Trust issue between a surviving spouse and children of the deceased.
