We help clients during the procedure by which a will is proved to be valid or invalid, or assets and debts pass through the court system without a will, and the subsequent estate is distributed to the creditors and heirs of a deceased person. We have represented heirs, executors, creditors and stand ready to discuss the unfortunate death of your loved one with compassion and understanding. In Illinois, there are even special rules that apply to close family members who may have cared for a disabled loved-one before his or her passing.  You could be entitled to more from an estate than you may think.  We are here to help you understand the process, the documents, the law and the contents of the estate of a deceased loved one.
