Nicole Pavlik Law
Overview

When a loved one dies without a trust, or with assets that fall outside their trust, Arizona's probate court oversees the transfer of those assets. We represent personal representatives through informal and formal probate, ensuring filings are correct, deadlines are met, and the process moves as efficiently as Arizona law allows.

Our work covers the full arc: petitioning to open probate, qualifying the personal representative, publishing and serving creditor notices, inventorying assets, paying valid claims, and ultimately distributing the estate to heirs and beneficiaries.

We bring particular care to the moments that matter most to families: explaining what to expect, calming concerns about timing, and being available when questions arise. Probate is a legal process, but it sits in the middle of a personal one.

If a will contest, creditor dispute, or other complication arises, we counsel the personal representative honestly about options and next steps.
