Probate

Do you have a will that needs to be probated? Has someone died without a will and you are unsure of what to do? Massachusetts has a “Uniform Probate Code” which describes the process to use to probate an estate both when there is a will or there is no will. Feel free to contact me to discuss the process that applies to your circumstances.

WHY WILLIAM WHITE ?


EFFECTIVE CLIENT COMMUNICATION

I have found that maintaining personal contact with a client is essential for a healthy attorney-client relationship. All too often, in our busy, high tech life, many people lack this personal touch. I spend whatever time it takes to insure that I understand a client's situation. Thereafter, I work not only to provide my clients with the best advice and representation possible, but to insure that they understand the reasons behind my advice. I pride myself on timely returning phone calls and e-mails.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCE

An undergraduate degree at Harvard College, a law degree from Georgetown Law, service as a law clerk to a federal judge, 39 years of experience in law firm and corporate settings, and just good common sense acquired from many years of political experience and life in general all combine to give me a skill set that I use to represent my clients.
