probate Law
Probate is the legal process by which a person’s debts are paid and assets are distributed upon his or her death.
The attorneys at Pacia & Pacia, LLP help clients navigate – and, whenever possible, avoid – the probate process and otherwise assist families in the distribution of the decedent’s assets and the winding down of the decedent’s estate through the probate court system. State laws and procedures can be very confusing and vary greatly, so it is important to consult a firm with expertise in this area to ensure that the decedent’s assets are distributed quickly, correctly, and with minimal expense.
When disputes arise – e.g., in a will contest or competency hearings – Pacia & Pacia, LLP will provide experienced and aggressive representation to protect your interests and advance your rights.
We also provide counseling in circumstances where mentally or physically disabled individuals require guardianship or conservatorship services to help them protect their affairs.
