Queens And Forest Hills Probate Law Attorneys

Estate Planning And Probate Administration

Estate planning is a vital tool in preserving the wealth you have accumulated during your life. It also ensures your final wishes are carried out, allows you to donate to charities, as well as provide for your heirs. Above all, however, it is one of the best ways to show your family and friends how much you love them — it reduces the time, effort and costs necessary to settle your affairs after you pass on.

Probate, unlike estate planning, is the legal process where a will is validated by a court. The process is quite complex, especially for anyone who has little to no experience working with New York's justice system. The attorneys at Joseph N. Yamaner and Associates will work closely with you to see the process is followed, including paying taxes and distributing property according to the will. They will also work quickly to address any will disputes that might arise.

Real Estate: Commercial And Residential Services

In addition to providing probate and elder law services, the firm's attorneys also assist business and consumer clients in matters involving real estate. This includes representing parties at closing proceedings, assisting with mortgages, performing title searches and resolving landlord-tenant disputes. They also help foreign businesses and individuals buy or sell land in the United States as they are very familiar with the unique requirements involved.
