Probate Attorney 


Probate is the court-supervised process of distributing a deceased person's assets to their heirs. The probate process can be simple or complicated, depending on the size and complexity of the estate. Probate can also be contested, which means that one or more heirs disagree with the terms of the will or how the estate is being managed. Our attorneys have extensive experience handling both simple and contested probate matters in Shawano, WI. We understand the ins and outs of probate law, and we know how to navigate the court system. We also have a proven track record of success in Probate Court.

Elder Law Issues

In the later years of life, it can be quite a bit easier to get lost in the legal system. Besides the confusing jungle of wills, estates, and trusts, elderly people are more frequently put in positions where they can be taken advantage of by other people -namely, caregivers - either in the family or trained professionals! With our focus on elder law, we strive very diligently to ensure that none of our clients are ever taken advantage of in this way, but also to ensure that we are well-prepared to deal with any issues should they arise.
