Preparing for a future California launch.
Probate Ops provides one service: professional administration of a deceased person’s probate estate. When no one is ready to serve or an estate has stalled, we provide organized leadership from appointment through closing.

A focused practice
Probate Ops serves as the court-appointed estate representative responsible for administering a probate estate after someone dies. The property, financial, vendor, communication, and reporting work described on this site are all responsibilities within that one role.
Not offered: guardianship, conservatorship, power of attorney, trustee, or general fiduciary services.

Nationwide inquiries
Our current focus is Oregon, New York, and Connecticut, but Probate Ops can help assess estate administration matters in any U.S. state and coordinate with local probate counsel. Eligibility to serve depends on local law, qualification requirements, and court approval.
Discuss an estate in another stateWhen probate stalls
Families and professionals may need independent help when no one is willing to handle the estate, relatives disagree, the current estate representative steps down, or the work stops moving.
A neutral professional may provide an alternative when family members cannot or do not want to take on the responsibility.

Learn moreOur approach
An estate representative—the executor, administrator, or other person legally responsible for managing the estate—does not perform every task alone. The role is to make informed decisions, assemble the right professionals, supervise the work, protect estate property, and keep heirs and other interested people informed.
