Probate

The death of a loved one or family member can be a very difficult and stressful time. Detlefsen Law Office can help you avoid that stress by doing all the work. With fairness and compassion, we will help you and your family members settle the distribution of your deceased family member's estate, whether they left a will or not.

Detlefsen Law Office serves clients throughout the state, as well as clients out of state who have estate administration needs in Wisconsin. We settle disputes among survivors and distribute remaining property to heirs, including the transfer of property titles.

If written well, a will is difficult to contest in probate court. Our objective is to honor the intent set forth in a legal will. If you or someone else disputes an existing will, we will help you work through informal probate proceedings.

We encourage clients to be proactive about estate planning, clearly defining their final wishes by establishing trusts and wills. By planning ahead, probate can be avoided or made easier later on.

However, when the need for a probate attorney arises, Detlefsen Law Office has the experience to guide you and your family through the legal process of probate administration.

If you would like to schedule an INITIAL CONSULTATION to discuss how we can be of service to you, please contact us anytime.
