Experienced Estate Administration

Robert Lewis has practiced in estate administration and probate law for more than 20 years. He can steer clients to an efficient and legally sound will execution, shielding them from the hassle and the personal liability:

  • Heirship search
  • Filing an inventory of assets
  • Liquidating assets (e.g., finding a broker to sell the house)
  • Distributing assets to heirs
  • Paying taxes and filing an accounting of the estate

Mr. Lewis advises executors on the estate tax implications of estate administration to minimize the impact on heirs. He also represents clients in probate litigation if they are accused of breach of fiduciary duty.
