Our probate attorneys are here to guide you through every step, providing experienced legal support and peace of mind when you need it most.

Guiding Fall River Families Through Probate

Probate is the legal process of settling a deceased person’s estate—ensuring that debts are paid and assets are distributed according to their will, or in accordance with Massachusetts law if no will exists. At Percy Law Group, PC, we help executors, administrators, and family members understand their roles and responsibilities under the law.

Whether the estate is simple or involves complex assets, we are here to help you move through the process efficiently and correctly.

  • Filing the will with the Bristol County Probate and Family Court
  • Petitioning for appointment of a personal representative (executor or administrator)
  • Inventorying and valuing estate assets
  • Paying valid debts and taxes
  • Distributing assets to beneficiaries or heirs
  • Resolving will contests or disputes among heirs

Our attorneys have deep knowledge of the Massachusetts probate system and the local rules that apply in Bristol County.

Whether your loved one left a clear will or passed away intestate (without a will), we’re here to help you meet the legal requirements while minimizing the stress on your family.
