Probate
Probate is the process of settling and administering estates, guardian- ships, curatorships and name changes. Most often, it involves the administration of a loved one’s estate after they’ve died.
A probate case can be opened if the deceased left a will, or if they died without a will. Brackney Law can help family members and loved ones navigate the probate process by getting a will admitted to probate, getting a personal representative appointed for the estate, advising the representative of ongoing responsibilities to the Court and taxing authorities.
