We pride ourselves on our high level of integrity.

Our individual care and attention affords the assurance that you are not alone and will not be regarded as "just another case."
Probate: When it comes time to navigate a probate estate through the court system, you can rely on the knowledgeable probate lawyers at Conover & Grebe, LLP. We regularly work with clients on probate and estate administration, and our experience and compassion help expedite the process and ease the difficulty. Often an estate beneficiary may have questions in regard to his or her rights to inherit estate property. The attorneys at Conover & Grebe, LLP, can assist beneficiaries, named executors under a Will, or other fiduciaries relating to probate matters.
Estate planning — wills and trusts: An estate plan can run the gamut from a single Will to a complex Trust. We are experienced in creating all types of estate plans, including Trusts, Wills, all forms of Powers of Attorney including Durable Powers of Property Management (financial powers) and Advance Health Care Directives. We also review and amend existing estate plans.
Conservatorships — elder abuse: Sometimes a friend or loved one needs help with his or her financial or personal matters or protection from elder abuse. If the person in need has estate planning documents, the court may not need to become involved to appoint a guardian or conservator. If no documents exist, or elder abuse or undue influence issues are involved, you may need to seek assistance through the courts. We have experience in evaluating these matters and filing conservatorships and handling other legal matters for our client as needed.
Trust administration: Trustees often require assistance in determining what their duties are under the Trust instrument and how the Trust operates. We are here to help. Additionally, Trust beneficiaries may have questions with regard to their rights to Trust property, or how to deal with a Trustee. The attorneys at Conover & Grebe, LLP, can assist Trustees and beneficiaries with these matters.
Special needs planning: Our practice is experienced in the issues that may lead to planning for a loved one with physical and/or mental disabilities. Generally, a Special Needs Trust is created by a parent or grandparent as part of an estate plan (Third-Party Special Needs Trust), or when a disabled child receives a settlement from a personal injury lawsuit (Self-Settled Special Needs Trust). A parent or legal guardian may wish to place these assets into a Special Needs Trust. Proper planning for children with special needs is often overlooked by parents, grandparents and legal guardians. We raise these issues when assisting you in planning for your estate.
Pet trusts: The law relating to Pet Trusts is relatively new. We at Conover & Grebe, LLP, work with individuals and help them create specific provisions in their estate plan for their pets.
