Probate law involves the administration of a person's estate after they've passed away, but it also addresses areas such as adoptions and guardianships.

You don't have to try to get through these issues alone, not being sure where to turn. We're here for you, to help legal aspects of these situations go right.
Estate Administration
Estate administration involves what people often call the process of probate, or probating a will. When a loved one passes away, and you're in charge of settling their estate, it's important for you to know how to do that legally.
There's paperwork involved, creditors to be paid, and assets to be distributed. In the midst of all that is the grief and loss you feel, and that can make it harder to focus on getting everything done. By working with us at P. Wilkinson Law LLC, you can receive important support and guidance to complete the probate process and close the estate.
Adoptions
Adopting a child is one of the greatest things you can do for a young person who needs a home. Whether you've been fostering a child and want to adopt them, or you've working with an agency to bring home a baby, there are legal hurdles to consider.
P. Wilkinson Law LLC can help you move through the process, making it easier to get it settled and enjoy your family. We know what's required for the adoption process, and can reduce your stress and anxiety as you wait for the adoption to be finalized. Having a legal advocate on your side makes everything easier.
Guardianships
Legal guardianships can be put into place for several reasons. They may be for young children who lose their parents, or whose parents can no longer care for them. You can also have a guardianship for an adult who may be disabled and can't care for themselves.
Whether you're protecting young children in the event of your death, or you want to secure proper care for a disabled family member, we can help you with the guardianship documents that need filed and any requirements that have to be met. That can create a lot of peace of mind, helping you feel more confident as you move into an uncertain future.
