Probating Long and Short Form Estates in Connecticut

Probate is the process of finalizing the estate of a person who has passed away. In many cases, the person named as the executor or personal representative has never been through a probate proceeding before. For these people, the assistance of an experienced Hartford probate attorney can help to ensure that the process goes smoothly and that all requirements are fulfilled in accordance with the law.

At the Manchester, Connecticut, based law firm of Diana, Conti & Tunila, LLP, we represent clients in all types of probate proceedings. We have experience handling cases on all sides of these matters, including executors, trustees and other fiduciaries, holders of powers of attorney, beneficiaries and other parties with an interest in the estate.
