Need an experienced probate attorney?

Probate is the process by which estates get settled after someone dies and it can be extremely complicated. This is why it’s important for anybody writing a will and for any beneficiary of a will to have a lawyer on their side to assist them through this legal process. Theus Law Offices can help you with your will and settling your estate: we are certified specialists in probate administration, and our goal is to help you navigate the process in the fastest and easiest way possible. 

Our law firm services the entire State of Louisiana and administers both simple and complex estates. Our dedicated team of lawyers can facilitate the following services for you:

Will Drafting

A poorly drafted will can be contested and it can cause stress and conflict for your heirs. By having a will drafted by a probate lawyer, you are ensuring that your wishes are followed upon your death as easily as possible.

Trust Setup

Creating a trust ensures that your valuables will go to the right place either while you’re still living or after you have passed. A trust attorney can give you the confidence that what you decide will be put into place, so that even if there’s a dispute, your trust will hold up in court.

Estate Protection

Legal claims are sometimes made after death and are often claims against the estate. A probate lawyer can handle those claims and help you ensure that your wishes and the interests of your descendants are protected.

Speed Up Probate

While not every death is going to lead to probate, it can happen. The probate process can be intricate, and depending on the details of the will, it may not run smoothly if you plan to handle it on your own. A probate attorney can assist you in negotiating the legal process and help resolve any financial and legal matters that may arise with minimum fuss and lay.

Expertise you can trust

Our legal expertise, communication skills, and ethical standards have earned us an AV Preeminent Peer Review and Client Champion Rating distinction from Martindale-Hubbell for the highest level of professional excellence.
