ESTATE ADMINISTRATION – Probate
Through the efficient use of paralegals, support staff and knowledgeable professionals, the firm is able to provide the most capable and cost effective representation of personal representatives, trustees and heirs. The attorneys and paraprofessionals in the estate planning team work closely with our clients to insure that their objectives are fully realized. We use all available means to minimize the client’s federal estate tax and state inheritance tax liabilities and to affect the transfer of wealth to the appropriate beneficiaries with minimal delay and complication.
Through long years of experience in countless estates, the firm has established close working relationships with all area trust officers, accountants and insurance providers, which assures our ability to effectuate the client’s administration needs and objectives. A full complement of estate administration services is available for estates of decedents who resided in Michigan as well as Indiana.
At Sanders • Pianowski, LLP, the emphasis is on finding creative solutions to legal problems, and that credo is a hallmark of our probate practice as well. The attorneys in our estate administration practice are well-positioned to provide the best possible solution to those unique issues which arise in matters involving distribution of wealth. In those cases when claim or other litigation is unavoidable, our clients have the advantage of the vigorous and tenacious advocacy of our litigation attorneys as well. In this respect, our clients also benefit from the ability of each practice group to draw upon the skills and talents of attorneys in the other groups for assistance with a particular problem or opportunity. We believe that an integrated team approach not only produces sound legal advice, but also helps achieve the optimum practical result for a client’s estate. We pride ourselves on the accessibility and responsiveness of our estate administration team.
