Trust Administration and Probate
At the Law Office of David W. Knecht, we help trustees and executors administer trusts and probates. For the new trustee or executor, the process can be confusing and overwhelming, especially when added to the already difficult experience of losing a loved one. We will spend time with you explaining the process and tasks involved in successfully administering a trust or probate estate.
Wills and Revocable Trusts
Mr. Knecht will meet with you to discuss your situation and whether or not a revocable, or living, trust is right for you. Trusts are often appropriate to achieve goals including probate avoidance, federal estate tax minimization, and greater flexibility in creating distribution plans for specific beneficiaries.
Trust and Will Litigation
We represent clients in trust litigation and will contests, representing trustees, executors, beneficiaries, and other interested parties.
