Complex Probate and Estate Administration Counsel
The attorneys of the Knoxville-based Hurley Law Firm, P.C. deal with especially complex estate administration and probate litigation throughout East Tennessee. Frequently, probate issues arise in conjunction with our firm's wrongful death cases. The right to bring probate cases rests with people designated as representatives of the estate. However, our estate administration and probate work extends far beyond issues relating to wrongful death matters.
Our estate and probate practice includes services related to:
- Filing documents to conclude the financial affairs of the deceased
- Paying debts of the estate and liquidating assets
- Identifying heirs and distributing remaining assets
- Handling estate claims and dealing with probate litigation
- Administering the passing of the estate, including the filing of accountings and inventories
The trial experience of our attorneys is particularly useful in will contests. Our chief lawyer, D. Scott Hurley, has 20 years of experience with complex litigation, and is well-known in the Knoxville legal area for his aggressive and skilled work in court. We pride ourselves in timely handling of estate administration and litigated issues so assets can be distributed quickly and efficiently to the intended parties.
If you need to probate a will in the Knoxville area or administer an estate that is large or complex, please contact us at 865-523-1414.
