Nassau County Estate Administration Lawyer

When a loved one passes away, not only are you dealing with this tremendous loss, you must deal with the management of your loved ones estate as well.  Those who are put in charge of the Estate after a death in the family must deal with a lot; debt collection, valuation of assets, sale of real estate, record keeping, fiduciary accounting, filing of income tax returns and filing of New York Surrogates Court inventory.  The estate administrator must also quickly learn about the courts and hear from unhappy family members who may feel their rights to the estate have been compromised.  A Nassau County Estate Administration Lawyer from Stephen Bilkis and Associates is often needed to sort out all the details surrounding the estate.

Your loved one’s preference for an executor is usually indicated in the Will.  If the deceased individual had a Will, a Nassau County Estate Administration Lawyer will present the Will for probate.  If an executor needs to be appointed however, an Estate Administration Lawyer must file the appropriate paperwork in the New York Surrogates Court.

If no Will exists, the Estate Administration Lawyer will file for administration.  A personal representative will generally file a petition with the Nassau County Surrogates Court.  The Court will then appoint an administrator to the estate, often a relative or other loved one.  An Estate Administration Lawyer from our law office in Nassau County will work closely with your executors, trustees and beneficiaries of trusts and estates to ensure the right steps are taken, and the administration of trusts and estates is conducted in an appropriate and timely manner.  An Estate Administration Lawyer from Stephen Bilkis and Associates will counsel those individuals who are involved with the estate through the entire probate process, so that all parties are aware of their rights.
