What is Probate & Trust Administration, and Why Do I Need Legal Help?

Probate is the legal process through which a deceased person’s estate is validated, debts are paid, and assets are distributed.

Trust administration involves managing a trust and distributing assets according to the terms of the trust document.

Both processes can be complicated, requiring legal knowledge to ensure everything is handled properly. Without proper legal guidance, mistakes can lead to delays, disputes, or even litigation.

At Blue Mahoe Law, we guide you through the probate and trust administration process, ensuring the decedent’s estate is handled smoothly and in full compliance with the law.
