New York City Estate Administration Attorneys
Since 1992, the attorneys at Krim & Krim, PC, have guided clients through the difficult processes of estate probate and estate administration. We encourage you to seek the counsel of experienced lawyers to answer your questions and provide options.
We firmly believe that everyone should take the time to consider what will happen after he or she passes away. Estate planning documents such as wills and trusts exist to ensure that an individual's wishes are carried out. The more detailed these documents are, the more effective they can be in resolving or preventing disputes in the future.

Our firm is experienced representing clients through both the probate process and estate administration.
- Probate: In New York, probate is the first step that is taken to examine and distribute the assets of those who have passed away. The process of probate exists to study the validity of the will of a deceased individual. The procedure allows for the notification of heirs listed in the will, the distribution of assets and the appointment of an executor if one is not listed in the will.
- Estate administration: If no will exists, a filing for estate administration must be completed. In these situations, the most important task your attorney has is the gathering and valuation of assets. Once this is completed, the assets will typically be divided and distributed based on New York statutes.
It is wise to contact our Manhattan probate attorneys to assist in the validation of a will. We understand that the process can seem confusing and frustrating to individuals who are also grieving the loss of a loved one. It is our goal to take as much of the stress and worry off your shoulders as possible.
