What Is the Difference Between a Probate Attorney and an Estate Planning Attorney?

The difference between an estate lawyer and a probate lawyer is when assignors generally hire estate planning lawyers before their death to support them make a plan for dividing their estate and assets. In contrast, a probate lawyer can assist the estate official and family in overseeing the confirmation and management in probate court after the assignor has died.

Guide to Avoiding Common Estate Planning Errors

While you could create your own will and accompanying documents, doing so can be risky. If the estate plan is not in compliance with Idaho state law, it could be found to be invalid and the estate could go into probate. Our estate planning attorney in Boise reviews existing wills for clients to make sure they are valid and to correct any mistakes.
