Frequently Asked Questions

What is probate and do I need a lawyer?

Probate is the legal process of settling a deceased person's estate — distributing assets, paying debts, and closing accounts. While not always required, most estates with real property in California go through probate. An experienced probate attorney ensures the process is handled correctly and efficiently.

How long does probate take in Los Angeles?

A straightforward probate case in Los Angeles typically takes 9 to 18 months. More complex cases involving contested wills, multiple properties, or creditor disputes can take longer. We work to resolve your case as efficiently as possible.

How much does a probate lawyer cost?

In California, probate attorney fees are set by statute based on the value of the estate. We'll explain the fee structure clearly during your free consultation so there are no surprises.

What if the will is being contested?

We have extensive experience with contested estates. Whether there's a dispute over the validity of a will, disagreements between heirs, or concerns about executor conduct, we represent your interests and work toward a fair resolution.

Can you help if there is no will?

Yes. When someone dies without a will (intestate), California law determines how assets are distributed. We guide you through the intestate probate process, helping identify heirs and manage the estate according to state law.
