A tragic situation occurred in the Smith family: the head of the family, Mr. John Smith, died without a will, leaving a substantial property and business inheritance. Due to the lack of a will, a dispute arose as to how to distribute the inheritance among the heirs.

Lawyers from LawNYS were retained to protect the rights and interests of the heirs: his widow, Mrs. Mary Smith, and two minor children. The case was complex as the estate included real estate, company stock, financial assets and intellectual property.

The LawNYS team conducted extensive research and evidence gathering to establish the heirs’ entitlement to a portion of the Smith family’s estate. They developed a comprehensive strategy that included negotiating with other interested parties, conducting mediation, and representing clients in court.

The LawNYS team successfully presented the clients’ arguments and obtained a judgment in their favor from the court, which protected Mrs. Mary Smith and her children’s rights to the family inheritance.
