What Is Probate Law?

At Grey Lex, LLC, we understand that the passing away of a loved one is a difficult time for any family. On top of dealing with the emotional toll, there are also legal matters to handle. This is where probate law comes into play.


Probate Law deals with the process of distributing a deceased individual's assets and properties according to their last will or state laws if there is no will in place. In Louisiana, this process is overseen by the court system and can be complex and time-consuming without proper guidance from an experienced probate lawyer.
