Respected Estate Administration
and Probate Litigation Lawyers
Estate administration is more complex than filling out a few forms and distributing the estate to the beneficiaries. Noble & Crow, P.A. in Rockville, Maryland is committed to counseling families and executors through the complex issues associated with estate administration, will contests, and probate litigation.
Estate Administration
Estate administration and dispersing assets to beneficiaries is a complex and emotional process. Our lawyers work closely with our clients to ensure the estate administration process is straightforward. However, will contest and objections to the administration of an estate can significantly delay the settling of an estate.
Administration of even the simplest estate can take seven to eight months. Complex estates involving significant real estate holdings, investment assets, or family owner businesses can take years. Our attorneys have the skill to guide estate administrators and beneficiaries through the legal processes associated with registering a will and gaining court approval for the administration of the estate. In addition, our firm understands how to account for income generated during the probate period.
Probate Litigation
There are numerous reasons an estate may end up in litigation. Some of the most common causes of probate litigation involve will contests, objections to the administration of an estate, and trust litigation. Many of these objections involve claims of lack of capacity of the decedent or undue influence involved in the drafting of a will. Our trial lawyers have the skill and experience to effectively and compassionately handle probate litigation.
In addition to family estate matters, our attorneys have significant experience representing the interests of institutions, trusts, and corporations named as beneficiaries.
