We recognize the true difficulty in coping with the death of a loved one, and we know that legal concerns should not be an added stress on you and your family. John D. Stephens Law Firm will handle the legal matters throughout the succession of your loved one’s estate, making sure to address all of your concerns and questions along the way.

Some of the areas that our Firm will address throughout the succession process include:

Spouse’s Rights: We will focus on the right of the surviving spouse, ensuring that community property is transferred accurately and that the spouse’s rights are protected.

Defending Your Loved One’s Intentions. If there are questions regarding the legitimacy of your loved one’s Will and Testament, including issues of incapacity or undue influence, we will defend the true intentions of your loved one.
