The consult is a focused conversation about your specific estate or probate matter — which county’s court applies, what documents you have, and what the path ahead looks like. It is informational; there is no obligation.
Service area
We serve all of Long Island:
- Nassau County — Garden City, Hempstead, Mineola, Manhasset, Long Beach, Massapequa, and beyond. Probate venue: Nassau County Surrogate’s Court, 262 Old Country Road, Mineola, NY 11501.
- Suffolk County — Babylon, Huntington, Smithtown, Riverhead, and the East End (the Hamptons, North Fork, Montauk). Probate venue: Suffolk County Surrogate’s Court, 320 Center Drive, Riverhead, NY 11901.
Which court applies to your matter depends on the decedent’s county of domicile under SCPA 205 — see the Surrogate’s Court overview.
What to bring to your consult
To make the conversation productive, gather what you have:
- The original will (or a copy if that is all you have for now)
- A death certificate, if available
- A list of the decedent’s assets — the home, accounts, any boat, business, or East-End property
- Names and contact details of heirs and beneficiaries (distributees)
- Any prior estate documents — trusts, powers of attorney, beneficiary forms
Do not worry if you are missing items; we can work from what you have.
Contact and response expectations
We aim to respond to consultation requests promptly, typically within one to two business days. For the most reliable scheduling, use the Calendly link above rather than waiting on a callback.

Directions context
