Probate Modern Solutions for Complex Legal Matters

Santa Clarita Probate Lawyer

With Offices in Santa Clarita

If your loved one has passed on and did not set up a Trust before his or her death, the family may have to deal with probate in order to transfer the decedent's property and settle his or her financial affairs. At Young & Chic LLP, our compassionate estate planning lawyers in Santa Clarita can guide you through the probate process as your legal advisors and advocates. When you retain our firm, you won't have to worry about the legal side of your situation. Instead, you can focus your energy on recovering from the saddening death of your family member or close friend.

Understanding the Probate Process

If probate is necessary, the executor named in the Will is expected to get the ball rolling. If there is no Will, a family member will need to ask the Court to be appointed as the administrator of the estate. The proposed executor or administrator will be required to file the Will (if one exists) along with a Petition for Probate.

Once the Court grants the Petition, the executor or administrator has legal authority over the decedent's assets. This person will have the responsibility of overseeing the payment of debts, the collection of benefits, the valuation and sale of property, and ultimately the distribution of cash or property. The executor or administrator is entitled to be paid from the estate, but must apply to the Court for such compensation.

We Can Help You

If you are a prospective executor or administrator, or a family member with an interest in becoming an estate representative, we can help. Probate is complicated, and the paperwork to initiate and then complete the process can be daunting.

    “If you need help with a trust, I would definitely recommend the services of Young & Chic LLP.”

    I'm very pleased with the legal services provided by the Young & Chic LLP law firm. I became the trustee of my sister's trust upon her passing and needed help with administration, both legal and financial. She was located in Santa Clarita, and I'm located in Minnesota. With the great help of the staff, we were able to address all concerns from beneficiaries and myself to bring the administration to a close with minimal drama. Even with the distance between Young & Chic LLP and me, all went smoothly. If you need help with a trust, I would definitely recommend the services of Young & Chic LLP.

I received responses to my questions almost immediately every time. The pricing can be a little steep, but it's worth it and they do not pressure you about payment up front, they also give you an opportunity to make payment arrangements.
