New Jersey Probate Lawyer
Englewood Estate Administration Attorney Representing People in Probate Administration Proceedings
In New Jersey, the real property and financial assets of a deceased person are referred to as the estate. An estate may consist of probate assets and non-probate assets. Probate assets are assets transferred by provisions in a will — or assets that must be transferred to heirs when no will exists. Non-probate assets are assets that pass to beneficiaries by means other than a will.
Located in Englewood, New Jersey, Klein & Radol, LLC represents executors and personal representatives in probate administration proceedings. Even if the deceased person created an estate plan such that all assets are non-probate property, there may still be many legal and financial actions to finalize — such as accounting for and distributing assets according to the estate plan.

The ABCs of Probate Administration in New Jersey
We represent executors in probate administration proceedings and proposed personal representatives in cases where no will exists. Probate administration can be a complicated maze for a non-lawyer; it does not just include the appointment of the administration or executor, but also includes the filing of both state and federal estate and income tax returns. An experienced probate attorney can relieve the burden of filing all the necessary documents, obtaining renunciations, and all other duties incident to probate administration. We handle every step of the probate administration process from start to finish. Some of the most common probate administration tasks include:
- Collecting and valuation of all the decedent's property and assets
- Arranging payment of debts, claims and taxes the decedent owed at the time of death
- Collecting all income the decedent was owed at the time of death, including employment or business income, dividends, insurance or other proceeds
- Representing the estate in any will contests or other estate litigation claims
- Distributing property to heirs pursuant to the terms of the will, the laws of intestacy when no will exists, or pursuant to other legal instruments in an estate plan
- Preparing filings for state and federal income and estate taxes.
