About Our Team

Atlanta Wills + Trusts is a different kind of estate planning law firm – this was intentional. While we have the knowledge, experience, and team to help our clients prepare a will, a trust, powers of attorney and other important documents to protect their family, our goal is not just to provide our client with a packet of documents and send them on their way.

Rather, our goal is for our clients to walk away with a plan. A plan that works for them, their family and their lives when they need it to work. A plan they know what to do with, who to tell about, and what next steps to take to ensure they are protected and those they love the most are protected. A plan that isn’t just a transaction, but the beginning of a relationship.

That type of plan requires a law firm, like ours, dedicated to being different, intentional and thoughtful about working with clients to make sure time is taken to answer the important questions and educate our clients.

Each member of our team is dedicated to our clients receiving a plan that works. Meet our team.

Grief affects people differently. Some family members want decisions made quickly. Others need more time. Long-standing relationships, misunderstandings, unequal expectations, or concerns about fairness can create tension during probate.

Executors and Administrators often feel caught in the middle—trying to follow the process while keeping everyone happy.

One of the most helpful things families can do is focus on communication, transparency, and understanding roles early. Probate is not about making everyone agree on every decision. It is about administering the estate responsibly and moving forward with clarity.

Organize the mail. Open bills. Try to shut down subscriptions that are no longer needed.

Mail will keep coming. As will the bills. Families are generally NOT responsible for paying the debts of the person who passed away (unless they agreed to be).

It may be a good idea to consult an attorney soon after a loved one passes if there seem to be a large number of bills coming in and/or bills in large amounts. Getting these resolved sooner than later will ensure that probate happens more smoothly.

The important part is to take control of the mail and bills and keep them organized. Do not leave things unopened.
