Experienced With the NYC Probate Surrogate's Court

Probate of an estate is usually handled by a court located in the same county and state where the deceased was domiciled at the time of his or her death.  Every state has some court that has the jurisdiction to handle probate matters, but not every state calls this court the same thing. For example, in NYC, the probate court is known as the Surrogate’s Court, while in California the Probate Division of the Superior Court has the responsibility to deal with probate matters.

The Probate Court NYC or Surrogate's Court has the jurisdiction to handle matters relating to a decedent's estate.  Proceedings that are handled in the probate court NYC include probate proceedings where the person has a last will and Administratoin proceedings where a person dies intestate or without a last will.  Other proceedings handled in the probate court NYC include accounting proceedings where the Executor or Administrator provides a record of all financial transactions involved in a decedent's estate.  These proceedings can be amicable or can involve disputes and litigation.

I have many years of experience working in the Probate Court NYC or Surrogate's Court and helping my clients with all types of proceedings.  I work closely with my clients and provide personal representation.
