Avoiding probate -- and collecting a small estate less than $100,000.00

Prior to my mother's death, Mr. Changose advised us about estate planning and avoiding probate. After her death he prepared and filed all the documents necessary with the court in order to dispense with formal administration of the remaining estate as it was valued under $100,000. He also drafted a...nd submitted all the documents necessary to collect the funds in a mutual fund account that was not transferable on her death. He was professional, timely, and extremely helpful in settling my mother's estate and related financial matters. In addition, his fees were far lower than I expected based on my previous experience as an executor for my uncle's estate. If I ever have to do this again, or need a lawyer for some other matter, I will seek him out for his invaluable assistance.

Excellent Legal Advice and Client Service

Fantastic legal service! When we ran into an issue with a tenant, I was overwhelmed trying to understand and resolve the situation. Goose and the team at Natural State were invaluable. They jumped in to help us with the matter and saved us significant time and money along the way (and in the resoluti...on). Great advice and communication throughout the process. We will certainly turn to them for any future legal needs.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
