Estate Administration: We provide guidance and support to executors throughout the estate administration process, ensuring compliance with legal requirements and efficient handling of estate affairs.
Beneficiary Representation: We represent estate beneficiaries in compelling distribution of assets, obtaining accountings from executors, removing executors, and pursuing legal action for breaches of fiduciary duties.
