When someone passes away without a will, Louisiana law determines who inherits their property. Our firm assists families with intestate successions, identifying the appropriate heirs, preparing necessary court documents, and helping transfer ownership of estate property according to Louisiana law.

A valid will can provide important instructions for distributing a person’s estate, but court proceedings may still be necessary. Andries Law Firm assists families with testate successions, including presenting wills for probate, preparing succession documents, and obtaining appropriate court orders to carry out the deceased person’s wishes.

Not every succession requires lengthy court proceedings. When heirs are in agreement and the estate meets the appropriate legal requirements, the process may be relatively straightforward. Andries Law Firm helps families pursue efficient resolutions for uncontested succession matters while ensuring that the necessary legal procedures are followed.

Planning for the future can help protect your wishes and make matters easier for your loved ones. Andries Law Firm assists clients with Louisiana estate planning matters, including preparing wills and providing guidance on how property may be transferred after death.
