Probate and Trust Administration

We understand that the loss of a loved one can be overwhelming. To assist you in your capacity as personal representative or trustee during life’s challenging times, Sacks Tierney's probate and trust administration attorneys can guide you through the legal process, protect your rights, and advise you regarding your responsibilities under Arizona law.

Sacks Tierney's probate and trust administration attorneys represent both Arizona residents and non-residents who have been nominated to serve as the personal representative of an estate, the trustee of a trust or to serve in any other fiduciary capacity. We can assist you in interpreting the relevant estate planning documents, determining the necessity of a probate proceeding, notifying creditors and coordinating the distribution of assets to family members. We can inform you of the duties which may be imposed upon you by Arizona law and assist you in fulfilling those duties in order to minimize your exposure to potential liability.

We also assist individuals who may have a beneficial interest in a decedent's estate and/or trust. Once we have had an opportunity to review the estate planning documents in place and learn more about your family dynamics, we can provide you with a valuable roadmap of the probate and trust administration process, inform you of the nature of your beneficial interest and assist you in obtaining the assets to which you may be entitled. We stand ready to serve as an advocate on your behalf.
