PROBATE

The Skilled Legal Support You Need During The California Probate Process

​

When your estate administration responsibilities to your family become too much after the passing of a loved one, our law firm is honored to assist you with the job of ensuring that assets and property are smoothly transferred to heirs or beneficiaries during the probate legal process.

​

The first order of business is verification of the existence of a valid will. If an executor named in the will, we can then petition the probate court for proper appointment.

​

If no valid will is found that can begin estate administration, family members of the deceased should decide who will act as personal representative and administrator of the estate.

​

At Hunsberger Dunn LLP, our knowledgeable estate and probate attorneys Orange County, CA have decades of combined experience with guiding families through critical decision-making, counsel for what the job entails and who would be best to serve.

​

The probate court is tasked with oversight of the administration process to recognize the decedent’s wishes in the valid will, as well as proper execution of requirements imposed by California law when no will is found.
