Guidance for executors and estate administrators
Handling a loved one’s estate can mean making unfamiliar decisions while you are grieving. Booth Law Group provides New York probate and estate administration support, helping executors and administrators understand the documents, responsibilities and next steps involved.
We begin by reviewing the will, if one is available, the information about the estate and any court correspondence. Tell us whether an application has already been filed, whether someone has been appointed to act and what questions have arisen. This helps us identify the support you need without assuming every estate follows the same path.
