Barnett & Associates, P.C., will take care of your legal needs when a family member dies. We handle various probate proceedings ranging from simple probating of a decedent's will, to assisting with independent or dependent administration of an estate where there was no will, to determination of heirship and muniment of title proceedings. Often, estate planning includes strategies to avoid probating an estate. We understand that it is important to satisfy the objectives of the decedent as well as state and federal government. This complex process is efficiently and competently handled by our lawyers throughout the probate process.

We have solid experience in probate litigation, will contests, guardianships, conservatorships and general probate matters. If probate is contested, we will make sure that your rights are represented in probate court. We assist with the transferring of assets from the decedent to his or her beneficiaries with either simple or complex estates.
