Probate

Columbus Lawyer Handling Probate Cases

Probate means "prove" and is the legal process that determines whether the testamentary will of a deceased person is valid. While it is up to each person to draft a lawful choice to distribute assets according to their wishes, it is up to a probate judge to determine whether the terms of the will are legally valid. It is one of the important reasons why the lawyer you hire must have probate and estate administration experience.

Brace W. Luquire, Attorney At Law,  provides estate administration advice to help families, trustees, and administrators complete their duties, including distributing property and assets to the beneficiaries, paying creditors, and determining the amount of tax owed by the estate. Even if there is no will, an heir can be appointed as the administrator of the estate and distribute the estate property in accordance with law.  Georgia also has a unique method of estate administration called "Year's Support".
