About Us
Report
PAUL ROGERS founded Advocas Law Group to create a different kind of law firm, one in which the attorney works for the client to achieve the best possible outcome at the least expense. As a litigator and former deputy district attorney, Paul saw firsthand the lack of confidence that many people have when it comes to legal services.
There are few things that lawyers can guarantee with any degree of certainty. However, one of those things is that it is FAR better to prepare an estate plan while still living. There are two types of estates: 1) testate; 2) intestate. If someone prepares an estate plan while alive, they can direct where, when, how, and by whom all assets will be directed and administered.
Probate, Trust and Estate Administration
Report
Unfortunately, when someone dies, it can be an emotionally stressful time to address administration of their estate. Despite that, some important things may need to be dealt with quickly, such as mortgage issues, property taxes, life insurance, retirement or investment accounts, notifications to banks, public entities, Social Security, medical providers or landlords.
Conservatorships & Guardianships
Report
A conservatorship is a court case in which a judge appoints a responsible party (called the "conservator") to care for someone 18 years of age or older (called the "conservatee") who cannot care for himself or herself or manage his or her own finances. Conservatorships are established for impaired adults, most often older people.
Estate Litigation
Report
Black's Law Dictionary defines "litigation" as, "A contest in a court of justice, for the purpose of enforcing a right." Estate Litigation involves the litigation of trust, estate, and protective proceedings (guardianships and conservatorships) in court, usually in Probate Court.
Estate Litigation includes litigation of conflicts, duties and/or rights regarding conservatorships, guardianships, wills, claims, elder abuse, defense of claims of breaches of fiduciary duties by trustees and other fiduciaries, accountings, petitions for court instructions, issues of trust modifications or reformation, allegations or protection from allegations of undue influence or fraudulent conveyances, and interpretation, advocacy, or defense of testamentary capacity and decedent's intent.
