Law Office of Michael R. Cahill

The court will manage how your heirs benefit from the estate you leave. This might involve listening to claims to ensure fairness, making decisions, handling disputes among your heirs and creditors, or even selling off assets. I don't think many clients enjoy it. Cost There are many reasons not to want the probate process, the most common one being cost. In Nevada, there are several types of probate, which cost differently depending on the size of the estate. Summary administrations (for estates that value between $100K and $200K), regular administrations (greater than $200K). For these services, Michael charges by the hour or a fixed percentage amount of the value of the estate. The hourly rate is between $250 and $450. This is merely for preparing and filing the petition needed to start the probate case and the discharge that closes the case. The process takes between 10-20 hours. But that’s if everything runs smoothly. It would be longer and costlier if the family members argue over who the administrator should be or who deserves what.
