Wills & Trusts

Westchester County Wills & Trusts Lawyers

During our 40 years of service to clients in the greater New York metro area, the attorneys at Law Offices of Thomas L. Gallivan, PLLC have developed an in-depth understanding regarding wills, trusts and probate matters.

Wills and trusts do not merely anticipate the end of a life. Ideally, they also allow for the smoothest possible transition for those left behind. We offer valuable input to our New York estate planning clients.

Contact us in White Plains, Uniondale or Manhattan today so that we can discuss your family’s goals regarding wills and trusts. You can reach us by phone, fax or e-mail to arrange a free initial consultation.

Dedicated and Responsive Wills & Trusts Representation

The trust and estates practice at Law Offices of Thomas L. Gallivan, PLLC will provide you with counsel regarding all your estate needs, including:

  • Wills
  • Living wills
  • Trusts
  • Power of Attorney
  • Health care proxies
  • Probate/Estate Administration

We work hard to see to the orderly distribution of an individual’s property at his or her death. In order to accomplish our clients’ goals, we consider the implications of wills, taxes, guardianship, conservatorship, insurance, powers of attorney, property and trusts. Our skilled wills and trusts attorneys will draft all legal documents necessary.

Probate is the court proceeding through which a will is determined valid, and the estate of the deceased is administered. The process typically includes liquidation of estate assets, payment of necessary taxes and distribution of property to heirs.

We can wisely counsel you as to how to avoid the sometimes time-consuming, expensive probate process or guide you through it, as well as handle non-probate transfers of your loved one’s assets. If no will exists, state law will determine how the assets of the estate will be distributed.

We cannot emphasize enough the importance of consulting with an attorney possessing experience and knowledge of estate administration and related areas. Please contact one of our conveniently located Law Offices of Thomas L. Gallivan, PLLC law offices today.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

" Last year I was injured in an accident, and for the first time, needed the advice of an attorney regarding how to proceed. I was referred to Thomas Gallivan through a family member who is a lawyer in Massachusetts. I am beyond pleased with how Thomas handled my case. He was knowledgeable, professional, and although the case was not as straightforward as some, he used every resource to ensure a positive outcome. Thomas communicated with me regularly and I felt completely informed and confident in his ability. He expertly negotiated a fair settlement that I was very happy with. The entire experience was extremely positive, during a stressful time for me. Thank you Thomas. "

" Attorney Thomas Gallivan is a wonderful attorney!! I particularly liked his professionalism, consistency, always kept us updated on the case, and available upon request. He worked extremely hard and was persistent on getting the best settlement in a timely matter. I truly appreciated his prompt responsiveness to emails and phone calls. The office staff was very pleasant and made sure to get messages to him asap. Glad we chose this law firm, would highly recommend and in the event that we ever need an attorney again, Gallivan & Gallivan would be my primary choice. "

" I was a passenger on a motorcycle and ended up falling off the back of the bike due to the driver acting like an idiot. I fell off at a high rate of speed and was very banged up. Fractured wrist and road rash down my back and elbows. I am lucky I didnt die. Not knowing what to do I contacted Thomas and he could not have been anymore helpful!! He went out of his way to meet with me. He actually came to my house for the initial consultation. I know nothing about law or what my options even were. He took me through everything step by step.
