How Can a Probate Attorney Help?
Though not technically necessary, a lawyer is an invaluable resource when facing probate. The decedent may name an executor in their will to handle the probate process. However, the tasks required of the executor are large and demanding for someone still mourning the loss of a loved one.
Our lawyer sympathizes with the pain of loss intrinsic in probate and is here to handle the arduous tasks involved so you have the time and space necessary to grieve. Our probate attorney will:
- Present the will to probate court and verify its authenticity and validity
- Settle the decedent’s outstanding debts
- Contact the beneficiaries
- Distribute assets according to the will
- Close the estate
- Complete and file all associated paperwork
- Handle all communication between the court, creditors, and beneficiaries
We remain available to solve any problems and mitigate any conflicts that arise throughout the process. Marsden Law P.C. is available to fulfill any needs you have to make a hard time a little easier by taking care of these tasks.
Options for Handling an Estate
Massachusetts offers a few methods for handling an estate. Our lawyer can help with whichever you choose to follow, including:
- Informal probate, which is handled by a Massachusetts Uniform Probate Code Magistrate instead of a judge, and requires no hearings, giving it the potential to be a faster process
- Formal probate, which occurs in front of a judge and necessitates a hearing
- Late and limited formal probate, which can settle the will of someone who passed away more than three years ago
- Voluntary admission, which is an alternative to probate when the value of assets is less than $25,000, regardless of if the decedent left a will
No matter the method you choose to settle your estate, Marsden Law P.C. offers the experience you need to handle the process efficiently.

My family and I are just starting the Medicaid application process for our Mom, who is now on Long Term Care. Marsden Law is handling all of this for us. After our first meeting with Jay, we went away with a much clearer understanding of how we need to proceed to take care of all of our Mom’s future financial needs. Jay took the time to explain everything in great detail and made it easy for us to understand what we need to do going forward. Applying for Medicaid is an overwhelming process, to say the least, and we have the utmost confidence in Jay and his team, that they will be there for us, through the entire process. I highly recommend Marsden Law for anyone dealing with the financial (and emotional) needs of caring for an elder parent.
