Estate Planning

Estate planning involves preparing for the distribution of one's assets and properties after death. This process includes creating legal documents, such as wills and trusts, to ensure that one's wishes are carried out, taxes are minimized, and loved ones are protected from potential complications during the inheritance process

Probate & Administration

Probate is the legal process of validating a will after a person passes away, settling their debts, and distributing assets to beneficiaries. Estate administration involves handling the deceased's affairs, including locating assets, paying debts, and distributing remaining assets according to the will or intestacy laws when no will is present.

Attorney Nicholas Ratush is incredibly knowledgeable and professional! He helped me with our father's estate planning as well as our wills and was very responsive to our needs. He is honest and only recommended what was needed! His costs are reasonable for the time he spent with us and for implementation of our fathers estate plan as well as the wills. Thank you.

If I could give more stars, I absolutely would. Attorney Ratush completely changed my perception of what to expect from a lawyer. What began as an extremely difficult estate case grew even more complex over time, but Nicholas was there for us every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better probate attorney—he was not only deeply knowledgeable about estate law, but also genuinely empathetic to our situation. His guidance, professionalism, and support made a stressful process so much more manageable. I’m truly grateful to have had him on our side.
