We Can Help You Probate a California Estate

When a family member has died, that last thing you need is the stress of dealing with probate. Let us provide assistance. If you have been named an executor or personal representative for a California estate, the Law Offices of Mark Lawrence Eisenberg can walk you through the process and handle details such as:

  • Petitioning the court for authority to administer the deceased's estate
  • Wrapping up their financial affairs
  • Dealing with creditors
  • Talking with realtors regarding sale of the deceased's home,
  • Compiling and completing all necessary documents for the probate process

Legal Authority for Caregiving

Guardianships: If a minor child's parents are unable, for whatever reason, to care for the child's health and wellbeing, we can petition to the court to name a guardian for the child.

Conservatorships: If a family member is unable to care for him or herself due to aging or a medical condition, we can petition the probate court to appoint a conservator.

Resolving Will Contests and Trust Litigation

Attorneys Mark Eisenberg and Lynette Luebker handle probate and trust disputes with care and attention to detail. If a will caveat has been filed against an estate you are administering, we can assist you with resolving the issue.

We represent executors, personal representatives and beneficiaries in will contests. These challenges may be based on questions about whether the will being probated is final or was executed correctly. A will contest may also arise when a beneficiary alleges that the person who wrote the will was incompetent or was the victim of undue influence, duress, or coercion.

We are also happy to represent both trustees and beneficiaries of trusts in disputes over the management of the trust or distribution of trust assets.
