Las Vegas Attorney

Do you need an experienced Nevada attorney? Drizin Law has been assisting clients with their probate and estate planning needs in Nevada for over 30+ years. Whether you are probating the estate of a loved one, challenging the validity of a will or trust, or setting up your own Nevada Estate Planning documents, you want to rely on a firm that has the experience and dedication to represent your financial interests.

With many types of law, you have the ability to change directions and make adjustments after the fact. You can renegotiate many legal matters, but not your estate plan or trust after you die. The right attorney will ensure your wishes are clear and concise, greatly reducing your chance for a trust or will contest.

If a loved one has died and you need a competent Nevada attorney, we will work with you to determine the quickest and most affordable process to probate the estate. The size of your Nevada Estate determines what type of probate process must be completed. We will work with you to determine not only the value of the assets owned by your loved one but also help you determine any outstanding liens and debts.

Nevada Estate Law Attorney

For small estates less than $25,000 ($100,000 if there is a surviving spouse), assets can be transferred with a Small Estate Affidavit. However, this process can’t be used to transfer real estate.
If the value of your loved one’s estate is $100,000 or less, assets may be able to be set aside without administration by court order. The real estate is valued at fair market value minus the outstanding mortgage balance at the date of the Decedent’s death. A Petition for Set Aside can be filed 30 days after the death of your loved one.

When the value of the estate is more than $100,000 but less than $300,000, the Nevada probate process commenced is known as a “summary administration”.

When your loved one’s estate exceeds $300,000, we will complete a general administration. This process is more time-consuming and can be complex. Having a competent and experienced Nevada attorney in Las Vegas throughout this process can assist you in saving time and money.

Sometimes, your loved one may have been a resident in another state but they owned assets such as Nevada real estate. You may need to complete an ancillary Nevada probate. We routinely work with out-of-state relatives to effectively transfer the real estate asset into the beneficiary’s name. Working through email, skype, or phone calls, it’s not even necessary to travel to Nevada to handle the out-of-state probate. Our goal is to make the Nevada law processes as easy and affordable as possible.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I had previously heard the praises of attorney Lee Drizin, and when probate matters regarding a loved one entered my life, I learned first-hand the praises were well-founded. Mr. Drizin is warm and cordial, and these traits are reflected in his capable staff, including associate Ethan Kottler. Everyone in the firm was patient and understanding when my sad emotions were too near the surface. On the business end, I found that the professionalism, knowledge, and follow-through on the part of the staff was top-notch: paperwork was provided timely, and the legalities and court procedures fully explained. I was never kept waiting for our conferences and meetings, and if I happened to arrive early, the staff was right there to take care of our business. The probate process has complexities to it, and the Drizin people handled it expertly. I sum up the Lee Drizin Chtd. firm with these two words: personable and professional and can only give highest recommendations.

My experience in having Lee A. Drizin Law Offices (Attorney Lester Berman) represent me was more than I could have ever expected! I was pleased beyond my expectations. The representation was always clear and concise. I will also like to say that the staff (more like a team) is outstanding as well! 5 Stars ***** and Counting for the Law Offices of Lee A. Drizin! I highly recommend them with no hesitation. If in need of their services you can rest assured you have hired the best, you can leave the rest…

I am a past client of Lee Drizin and reside in the State of Illinois. My case was complex due to a State of Nevada guardianship, where the Ward (my sister), was found to be neglected when she came to Illinois to visit me.

My refusal to return my sister to Nevada prompted the necessity for legal representation from a Nevada attorney. I hired attorney Lee Drizin, who consistently responded to hundreds of emails, phone calls and written documentation, throughout a five month period. His immediate research of court documents, support, advice and his solid ethical foundation, brought my vindication from any wrongdoing and my sister’s freedom from a ten year guardianship. Attorney Drizin listens to his client, responds appropriately and takes action. I knew exactly what was happening and why at all times. His tenacity follows the truth from his client, trust is established and ultimately rewarded with the finale of winning.

Success resulted due to his every recommendation, careful execution and strategic moves, together with seamless teamwork intervention. Attorney Lee Drizin and his team earned five+ stars from this client.

Ethan Kottler has been my attorney for a number of cases. He has always come through for me. However, one case takes Ethan to the highest level of esteem in my book.
During a very hard time with my mother, Ethan took time from his busy schedule to not only come to our home but also to bring an assistant to act as a Notary Public. You see my mother was not able to leave the house. Had it not been for Ethan we would have never been able to accomplish this particular task. He saved us in a very difficult time and I’m forever grateful to him and his professionalism. I HIGHLY recommend Ethan for your legal needs.

Lee is a trustworthy man who has the best interest of his client at heart. He aspires to understand what may be the clients goals and explains the law within the given situation in order for the layman to have the proper expectations. Lee and his staff are very detailed oriented and very responsive. Expect questions that will make you think about what you need to consider and know. Then expect to get information regarding the alternatives. I have worked with Lee on employment agreements and my corporate papers. He is my resident agent for my corporations and has worked on my will and trust paperwork where he has shown all the best of his legal mind, his steady questioning and his caring personality. He has consulted with me on real estate questions and a variety of additional matters. I would highly recommend Lee Drizin and his law offices.

My experience with the Lee Drizin Law Office and Ethan Kottler has been perfect. I always get a positive outcome and Ethan consistently returns calls. They make me feel my case is the only one they have and they have great relationships at the courthouse. When my cases were tried everyone knew my attorney and were glad to see him. It calmed my nerves and I felt strangely more comfortable about the whole situation knowing that the court respected my attorney. Simply, they just make it easier for me when legal issues arise and I always feel my family is safe. Over the years I have met the staff and everyone treats you professionally and courteously. Lee Drizin is a firm I would recommend to anyone!

I have been devastated by the loss of my family and the legal fallout. I had no idea how difficult the job of Guardianship would be and I appreciate Lee and his firm for their support throughout this difficult time. I could not hope to do that without their continued kind support. I feel very good about the work they did to support me. Not everyone has the opportunity to make such a positive contribution to the lives of others.

When I need counsel, Mr. Drizin is my go-to attorney. He’s diligent and highly skilled in his field. I’ve hired him on a couple occasions regarding real estate matters and he advised and represented my firm which resulted in positive outcomes. I highly recommend Mr. Drizin to anybody needing an attorney that will work with your interests in mind.

I have trusted Lee with my estate planning for almost 15 years and he has always been very trustworthy and knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone needing estate planning services!

I am very impressed with Drizin Law. Lee spent time explaining all my options and his paralegal was super easy to work with. They were very friendly and efficient, went above and beyond and even provided me with additional information after our case was closed. I highly recommend this firm.

I  want to thank this law office for providing me with a course of plan for my landlord tenant dispute where there was a breach of contract by the landlord and negligence to make repairs which resulted in a personal injury of my 15 month old who had to be rushed to the hospital and spend the day…. although I couldn’t afford their services, I was told how to proceed. Mr. Berman didn’t rush me off the phone, he gave me free information “how to”. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
