Discover How To Take the Problems Out of Probate

January 7, 2013 by Larry Parman, Estate Planning Attorney, Author, Speaker

The process of probate comes into play when you are planning your estate. Some people decide to take steps to arrange for asset transfers outside of probate, and this is one option that is available to you.

However, if you use a last will that is properly constructed by an estate planning attorney who is familiar with the nuances of the local courts here in the Oklahoma City area, probate can be navigated effectively.

To gain an understanding of exactly what probate is and how it works you may want to download the free report that we have prepared for people here in the community. It takes a look at probate in detail, and if you take the time to read the report you will be able to go forward with an underpinning of solid knowledge.

If you click the link that follows and complete the form on the right-hand side of the page we will send you access to our absolutely free report on the probate process:

Oklahoma City Probate Report

Arranging for the transfer of your assets to the people that you love the most is a very profound endeavor. To be able to make intelligent decisions you must have good information to work with and this report was prepared for just this reason.

Why make uninformed choices when you can work with a good estate planning attorney to craft an effective legacy? Download the report right now and feel free to get in touch with us if you have any further questions about probate or any other aspect of estate planning.

Founder and Owner at Parman & Easterday
Larry Parman's dad died at 56 in a farm accident with no estate plan. His family spent two years fighting the IRS and nearly three years in probate. That experience became Larry's life work.

Since founding Parman & Easterday in 1985, Larry has led over 1,000 free, community-service education programs and helped more than 10,000 Oklahoma families go from putting off their estate plan to getting it done. His goal for every client is the same: to become the person their family calls "the one who took care of everything."

Larry is the author of three books: The Straight Shooter's Guide to Estate Planning; Estate Planning Basics; and Guiding Those Left Behind in Oklahoma. He served as Oklahoma's Secretary of State and Secretary of Commerce, and his firm is the only member of the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys in the state.
