Probate

In the state of Tennessee, most estates will go through probate. If you have been named as the executor or administrator of a loved one’s estate, I can help you move through this process as quickly and efficiently as possible while ensuring that your loved one’s final wishes are respected. 

About Probate

Probate is a complex legal process used to validate a deceased person’s will, pay off their outstanding debts, and distribute any remaining property in accordance with their wishes. In most cases, an individual named in the deceased person’s will is responsible for overseeing probate as the estate executor or administrator. Because this process can be both lengthy and confusing, hiring a qualified attorney to help you is highly recommended.
