SUCCESSIONS

 

Successions are Louisiana's form of Probate, that puts the heirs in possession of property following the death of a loved one.  A loved one's death is always a difficult time and involves many unexpected expenses.  We at the Todd Martin Law Firm, do our very best to do your succession in a timely, affordable manner.  Whether or not your loved one left a Will, we can still handle the estate and make sure the appropriate heirs are put into possession.  Sometimes in certain instances, even an Affidavit of Small Succession can be done, saving the heirs legal fees and filing fees.  Give us a call and set up an appointment and we will be happy to review your specific situation for you at a free initial consultation.  

 

WILLS

 

A Last Will and Testament is a very important legal document, that almost all people should have, so that upon their death, all of their assets go to according to the wishes of the decedent.  The only forced heirs in Louisiana are those children 23 years of age or younger or children that are mentally or physically incabable of taking care of themselves.  Otherwise, decedants can dispose of their assets as they wish.  If you would like to set up a free consulation to discuss making a will, please give us a call today.
