Wills form the foundation of estate plans. When properly drafted and lawfully executed, these documents can guide the probate process and work to make sure that the wishes of the estate owner are followed after death. If you are preparing an estate plan or are in a probate court dispute, you can rely on the guidance and experience of a Destrehan wills and succession lawyer to protect your rights and interests.
Marino Law Firm, LLC, was founded in 1986 to provide residents in Destrehan with exceptional legal support and high-quality customer service. When you work with our legal team, you are connected directly to one of our lead attorneys, who personally manages your estate planning case.
Setting our law firm apart is our commitment to delivering client-focused services and helping the people we represent plan for the future through thoughtful and comprehensive estate planning. Our deep roots in the Destrehan community mean that we understand the local courts and how they operate.
Without a proper will in place, your estate would likely go through a complex probate process where the courts assess the value of the estate and pass down inheritances according to intestate laws. These cases are typically heard at the 29th Judicial District Court, which is located at 15045 River Road in nearby Hahnville.
The courts oversee matters such as appointing an executor, resolving creditor claims, and distributing property. Whether your estate is located in neighborhoods like Ormond, Ormond Estate, or Red Church, you can prepare a will that protects important assets. Common assets that can be accounted for in an estate plan include homes, which have an average value of $290,606 in the area.
Whether you are part of the 15% of Destrehan residents over 65 or simply wish to get a head start on planning for the future, your top priority should be to hire a wills and succession lawyer with years of experience managing wills, trusts, and other estate planning tools.
When you work with a Destrehan wills and succession attorney, you benefit from their understanding of estate laws and how they could affect a succession case. An attorney can draft a will according to your wishes or help you interpret an existing will if there is a probate court dispute.
