Trustworthy, Compassionate And Clear Guidance In Estate Administration

When a loved one dies – with or without a will – you may feel that you have a steep hill to climb if you are responsible for settling the estate.  No doubt, you will seek to honor your loved one’s wishes if you are the executor or personal representative.  At the same time, you need to fulfill the requirements of the probate court, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other people and entities that have anything to do with the deceased person’s estate.
