Probate can feel overwhelming, especially when you are already navigating a lot. If you’ve recently experienced a death, it is normal to feel unsure about what comes next.
You don’t need to have all the answers to get started. We’ll take the time to understand your situation and guide you through the process step-by-step, handling court filings and managing deadlines so you don’t have to carry it all alone.
We break down the probate timeline, court requirements, and executor or administrator responsibilities so you know what to expect at every stage.
We provide a clear, capable hand to help you move forward after a loss—without making the entire experience feel heavy or overwhelming.
We keep probate moving by staying on top of filings, deadlines, notices, and communication so the estate is settled as smoothly as possible.
Meet with our team to discuss your situation and understand what the probate process involves. We'll review the estate, explain your options, and help you determine the right path forward in plain language with no obligation.
We'll prepare the probate petition for you, and any other heirs, to review, sign, and have notarized. Once that's ready along with the death certificate, we'll file the petition with the appropriate Georgia probate court on your behalf.
After the court grants your petition, you'll come into our office to receive your Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration. We'll give you clear guidance on your duties and next steps as personal representative, including notifying beneficiaries, creditors, and relevant institutions.
If the court requires inventories, annual returns, or a final accounting, our office can prepare them for you, though some clients prefer to handle them independently. Either way, we'll support you until the estate is properly closed.
