NEW YORK ESTATE LITIGATION - We fight hard to get our clients the most out of a New York estate. When someone is unhappy with their share of inheritance or is not satisfied with the way the estate is being handled, we are there to protect your interests and we do our absolute best to win your case. We typically handle the following:
CLOSING NEW YORK ESTATES - We help administrators and executors close out and settle New York estates in administration and probate proceedings. We also help beneficiaries keep an eye on the executor to make sure that the estate is closed out in a clean and efficient way. Our knowledge of the system allows us to close and settle your matter in New York Surrogate's Court without unneeded expenses and delays.
NEW YORK ESTATE PLANNING - We recommend wills for younger clients and trusts for middle-aged and older clients. Wills are great because they are so quick to make. Trusts are better because they protect the inheritance from the recipients' spouses and creditors, save money on estate taxes and avoid the asset freeze that happens when a court is involved in an estate.
We know New York courts, and our goal has always been to put you ahead of your opponents. In proceedings as diverse as will contests, contested accountings and removing a fiduciary, our New York estate attorneys stand ready to bring out your best interest in estate litigation, administration and planning.
Our experienced New York estate attorneys have successfully represented clients all over New York City, including New York County (Manhattan), Kings County (Brooklyn), Bronx County, Queens County, Richmond County (Staten Island), Nassau County in Long Island, and Westchester County (the White Plains court). Each county has specific procedures and we are familiar with most of them.
Resources for Attorneys - If you are a New York attorney who is looking for a specific form or for guidance in representing a client in an estate case, you may be able to find it here. We are also available as co-counsel.
