Probate and Estate Law

Estate planning is the attorney-assisted process that examines your needs and assets and helps you realize your goals. There are two major goals in most estate planning: to keep costs down and to make it as efficient as possible. By utilizing wills and trusts our firm prevents unfortunate probate situations and assists in creating a peaceful environment upon the passing of a loved one.

Probate is the judge-supervised process of paying a decedent’s legitimate bills, inventorying and appraising a decedent’s assets, and distributing the assets to the decedent’s heirs or beneficiaries. William J. Edgar takes pride in allowing our clients to address more personal issues by speedily resolving any lingering questions.
