How Successions Works

Successions (referred to as “estate administration” or “probate” in other states) involves administering your loved one’s estate in accordance with their wishes. This often requires going to court, unless they were careful and detailed enough in their estate plan to avoid probate through the use of certain types of trusts, for example.

If they had an estate plan with a will, a court filing will be necessary to make sure the will is valid. If they didn’t have a will, the court will administer their estate in accordance with Louisiana’s intestacy laws. Smaller estates (under a certain value) can typically be handled outside of court.

Disputed Estates

It’s an unfortunate reality that heated disputes can erupt among family members over estate issues. Our lawyer is well-equipped to help you address these disputes, and avoid or mitigate them whenever possible.
