Losing a loved one can be emotionally devastating for just about anyone, and even more so for those tasked with managing the affairs of the recently deceased person.

The compassionate team at Farooqi & Husain Law Office is ready to help you during this difficult time and assist you in navigating the probate and estate administration process.

At our firm, we are equipped to offer guidance with estate management for families from a wide variety of demographic backgrounds.

Every situation is unique and requires a personalized approach from an attorney dedicated to helping you meet your family's needs.

Illinois Probate Lawyers

The process of probate is one that can be time-consuming and complicated. During the proceedings, the probate court will look to verify the validity of the deceased person's will. If no will exists, the probate court may divide the person's estate according to applicable state law. In Illinois, a will must be presented for probate before it can be implemented. The estate of any person who died without a will must also be presented. Attorneys Ausaf Farooqi and Naveed S. Husain have substantial probate experience, and we know how to help make the process more efficient. We strive to achieve results as quickly as possible while keeping you fully involved at every stage of the proceedings.

At Farooqi & Husain Law Office, we also understand that through effective estate planning, it may be possible to avoid probate altogether. Our attorneys can help you or your loved one develop strategies for estate planning that include trusts and powers of attorney in addition to wills so that your family's future is secure.
