Successions
When you’ve lost a loved one, especially when the task of getting their affairs in order falls to you, it can be overwhelming and stressful.
Once the funeral is over, the list of responsibilities continues, and it can be difficult to know where to begin – epsecially while you’re still grieving. At First NOLA Succession Law, our main concern is helping you.
We’ll do everything we can to take the burden off your shoulders and walk you through the succession process from start to finish.
We handle all types of successions in the Jefferson Parish and New Orleans area, and we’re ready to work with you to get your loved one’s affairs in order.
Uncontested Successions
In Jefferson Parish and New Orleans, the succession process can be lengthy and tiring.
You’ve just lost a loved one, and now you’re having to go through probate, as well.
Succession is Louisiana’s term for probate. It is the process by which the estate of a deceased person transfers to that person’s heirs.
An estate can be contested or uncontested.
When a succession is contested, the process can become much more complicated and aggressive. It may even lead to litigation.
Luckily, uncontested successions are far more common than contested ones, and our team at First NOLA Succession Law is here to help you through the process every step of the way.
Basic Starter Will
The Basic Starter Will service is geared towards couples or individuals who need help crafting various legal documents that explain your wishes regarding your assets and beneficiaries if you become incapacitated and after you die.
Having these documents in place in case of unforeseen circumstances will not only ensure your wishes are met, but will also help your loved ones who will be left to deal with the process.
With our Basic Starter Will service, you’ll get decades of experience working with these documents who will help you put your plan in place and avoid any pitfalls along the way.
Guardianships and Conservatorships
When a loved one is no longer capable of making personal or financial decisions, obtaining a guardianship or conservatorship may be necessary to ensure their well-being. Frank has Lagarde extensive experience in establishing guardianships and conservatorships, providing the necessary support and guidance to protect vulnerable individuals and their interests.
