Areas of Practice
Probate
A probate lawyer specializes in the legal process of administering the estate of a deceased person. This process involves validating the decedent's will, if one exists, identifying and inventorying assets, paying off debts and taxes, and distributing remaining assets to heirs or beneficiaries. Probate lawyers assist clients in navigating the complexities of probate court proceedings, ensuring that all legal requirements are met, and representing clients in disputes that may arise during the probate process.
1st-party insurance claims
First-party insurance claims involve a policyholder seeking compensation from their own insurance company for a covered loss or damage. These claims typically arise when a policyholder's property is damaged, such as in the case of a devastating fire or a natural disaster caused by a tornado, flood, or hail damage. If there is a dispute or the claim is denied, the policyholder may need to seek legal assistance to resolve the issue.
