Testimonials

  • “I spoke to Erik Broel on March 11, 2014 concerning my husband who died last month. He died with no will, assets, insurance or heirs. But I was having a problem with his bank regarding closing his personal checking account, (less than $500) because the bank wanted something from probate court. Mr. Broel pointed me to a section of the Banking Code which allowed me to close his account with no further hindrance from the bank. I had, for 3 weeks, been trying to close his account and Mr. Broel, with his expertise, solved my problem in one short phone call. Thanks to him, this is one more problem I can cross off my list. Mr. Broel is a keeper. Thank you sir!!!”

  • “I have to share with you that I feel like you guys are handling things so professionally and even though it’s hard/time-consuming for me to produce the documents because it’s been so long ago and I either gave the documents to my former attorney or didn’t know to keep them, I really appreciate how the estate is being handled now. I’m thinking he (former atty) must have been using one of those big yellow books written about “_____ _____ for Dummies because the difference is night and day.”

About Us

Single-Minded Dedication That Gets Results

Play

Georgia Probate and Estate Law 
is our focus and passion.

It’s what we do, our bread and butter, day in and day out. This single-minded dedication is what makes us the best in this field.

We work in every county within the State of Georgia and help individuals and families from all over the United States. When a family member passes away, our team is there to help you through one of the most difficult times you will face.

Probate is complicated.

We believe in settling an estate or trust fairly and making the process as simple and easy to understand as possible.

Sometimes, that means helping administer and settle an estate or trust peacefully, while other times, it means aggressively litigating a situation in court. Other times, we help with estates and trusts that are somewhere in between those two extremes.

Our staff is friendly, helpful, and here for you. We care about our clients and help you understand your situation, make a plan, and ensure that things are done fairly and right.
