In most cases, not your personal account
Most people who call us have never been through probate before. That’s normal — and it’s exactly what we do every day.
No obligation. No pressure. Just a clear answer on where you stand.
Which process applies depends mostly on what the estate is worth and whether it includes real property. We’ll confirm the right path on the free call.
Estates under $25,000 with no real property can often transfer on a sworn affidavit — no court case at all.
Under $150,000, a single hearing can set the estate aside to the spouse or heirs.
$150k to $500k. Court-supervised, but with fewer filings and shorter notice periods.
Over $500,000. Full supervision, more notice requirements, and where experience matters most.
Getting you appointed, then getting the sale confirmed so a stalled closing can actually close.
Will contests, disputes over the personal representative, and undue influence claims.
You won’t be sent a stack of forms and left to figure it out. Here’s exactly how working with us goes.
Tell us what happened and what the estate includes. We’ll tell you which Nevada process applies and what it will realistically cost.
We prepare and file the petition, notify heirs and creditors, and get you appointed as personal representative.
We help the administer manage inventory and appraisal, creditor claims, property sales, court reporting.
The court approves the final accounting, property is distributed, and we close the estate.
The two questions everyone asks on the first call.
Ranges for an uncontested estate. Disputes, hard-to-value assets, or missing heirs extend these.
Why the wait? Nevada law requires a creditor notice period before an estate can close. That clock runs regardless of how fast your attorney works — which is exactly why filing correctly the first time matters.
Nevada sets the rules on attorney compensation in probate. You are not negotiating in the dark.
In a formal administration, attorney fees are set by statute or reviewed by the court — they aren't invented by the firm.
In most cases fees and costs come out of estate assets, not your personal bank account.
Small estates and set-aside petitions are often quoted as a single flat fee.
Filing fees, publication costs and appraisal costs are all explained before you sign anything.
Your exact number: we’ll give it to you on the free consultation, once we know what the estate contains.
One short call is usually enough to know. Free, and no obligation to hire us.

The questions we get on almost every first call.
Not always. Very small estates handled by affidavit can often be completed without an attorney. But once a case is filed with the court, Nevada holds personal representatives to the same procedural standards as attorneys, and mistakes cost time and money.
If the estate includes real property, business interests, creditor disputes, or heirs who disagree, having counsel is strongly advisable. We’ll tell you honestly on the free consultation whether your situation actually requires us.
For an uncontested estate: roughly 2–6 weeks for an affidavit, 1–3 months for a set aside, 4–6 months for summary administration, and 6–12 months or more for general administration.
The largest fixed factor is the mandatory creditor notice period, which runs on the court’s schedule no matter how quickly your attorney files.
It depends on the process your estate requires. Simpler matters — affidavits and set-aside petitions — are often quoted as a flat fee. In a formal administration, attorney compensation is governed by Nevada law and subject to court review.
Costs beyond fees typically include the court filing fee, publication of notice, and appraisal where required. In most cases all of it is paid from estate assets rather than out of pocket.
The estate is distributed under Nevada’s intestate succession statutes, which set a fixed order of inheritance — typically spouse and children first, then parents, then siblings.
The court also appoints a personal representative, usually the closest surviving family member who petitions for the role. No will does not mean the estate goes to the state.
Often yes — but not without authority. Someone must first be formally appointed as personal representative, and depending on the type of administration the sale may require court confirmation.
This is one of the most common reasons families call us: an accepted offer that can’t close because nobody has legal authority to sign.
Yes. A large share of our clients live outside Nevada. Consultations happen by phone or video, documents are signed electronically or by mail, and we appear at Clark County hearings on your behalf.
Bring what you have. Most useful: the death certificate, the original will or trust if one exists, deeds to any real property, recent bank and investment statements, and a rough list of debts. If you have none of that yet, still call — part of what we do is help you find it.
Contested probate is its own discipline. Will contests, disputes over the personal representative, undue influence claims, and distribution disagreements are resolved in the same probate court but require a different approach than a routine administration. Tell us about the conflict on the first call so we can scope it accurately.
