Dunn Carney attorneys assist trustees with the post-mortem administration of decedents' trusts. Our attorneys also handle probates in both Oregon and Washington. With our connection to law firms in other states through Meritas, our attorneys are able to assist clients with transferring property that is located in other states and, if necessary, with administering a probate in that jurisdiction. Dunn Carney attorneys work closely with the trustee or personal representative of the decedent's trust or estate to distribute the decedent's assets to the intended beneficiaries as quickly and efficiently as possible. Post-mortem estate planning techniques may also be used to minimize transfer taxes and manage other asset transfer issues. Dunn Carney attorneys assist clients in completing federal estate, gift, and state inheritance tax returns.
