Legal Advice

After a death, there are many legal details to take care of.  While it is not necessary to get a lawyer, it is strongly recommended.  A lawyer will make sure all the ‘t’s are crossed and i’s are dotted”.  The time following a death of a loved one is extremely emotional, and even the closest family may have disagreements.  To make sure there is still peace in the family, it is a good idea to have a lawyer assist in settling the estate. 

Before getting in touch with a lawyer there are several important documents that you need to gather.  Those include:
