Indiana Probate: Our Administrative Services
A probate case is initiated when a loved one dies. An individual’s assets and property must be accounted for. The probate court will assess and determine how and to whom such assets and property should be divided and distributed. Our legal team knows that this can be a confusing and overwhelming time and will depend on whether or not your loved one had a will and how big their estate is.
The probate process will determine:
- How a loved one’s assets will be distributed.
- How a loved one’s personal belongings will be divided.
- How a loved one’s outstanding debts and taxes will be paid.
- How a loved one’s estate will be protected against creditors.
- What will happen to a loved one’s home.
After a loved one’s death, our probate lawyers will provide personalized service. Our lead attorney, Angie Trapp, has nearly a decade of estate planning and probate experience. Our Indianapolis probate attorneys understand that the process can be confusing and seem overwhelming and that, during this difficult time, you need an attorney who will always respect and represent you and your family’s best interests.
When A Loved One Dies Without A Will In Indiana
In probate cases where there is no will, assets and belongings are distributed according to Indiana’s intestate succession laws. If you are responsible for administering a loved one’s estate, you likely have many questions and concerns about your responsibilities and fulfilling this role can seem daunting and overwhelming.
We represent families in estate administration matters and work to settle an estate in a timely and cost-conscious manner. We also present family members who have questions and concerns about the validity of a will or parties who wish to dispute matters related to the distribution of an estate’s assets.
