Before someone dies, a probate attorney can also be of help in creating an estate and putting all an individual’s assets into it.

Even when there is a Will, there are often instances when the court is involved to prove that the Will is valid, and to make sure that the decedent’s last wishes are properly met in accordance with the law.
