Probate And Administration Services

In New York, the probate process involves the legal validation and execution of a deceased person’s will through the Surrogate’s Court. This process ensures that the deceased’s assets are distributed according to their wishes as stated in the will. If there is no will, the estate undergoes an administration process, where assets are distributed according to state intestacy laws.

Probate typically includes proving the validity of the will, appointing an executor, inventorying the deceased’s assets, paying debts and taxes and distributing the remaining assets to the rightful heirs or beneficiaries. The process can vary in length and complexity depending on the size of the estate and the specifics of the will.

At the Law Office of Andrew M. Cohen PC, we can assist you with a variety of concerns related to probate and administration, including:

  • Advice regarding the terms of a will or trust
  • Preparation and filing of court papers
  • Post mortem planning
  • Litigation services for will contests and/or disputes among estate beneficiaries
  • Review of federal and state tax returns

We work with executors, administrators, trustees and other fiduciaries in all aspects of estate administration to complete the process quickly and efficiently while maintaining sensitivity to the concerns of the client.
