This is a focused working session to orient you to your borough’s Surrogate’s Court, the asset mix in the estate, and the path ahead — whether that is probate, administration, or planning to avoid both.
Service area
Morgan Legal Group handles estates across the five boroughs of New York City. Venue follows the decedent’s borough of domicile under SCPA 205:
- Manhattan — New York County Surrogate’s Court, 31 Chambers Street, New York, NY 10007
- Brooklyn — Kings County Surrogate’s Court, 2 Johnson Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201
- Queens — Queens County Surrogate’s Court, Jamaica
- The Bronx — Bronx County Surrogate’s Court
- Staten Island — Richmond County Surrogate’s Court
What to bring to your consultation
To make the most of the 30 minutes, gather what you can:
- The original will (or a copy if that is all you have)
- A death certificate, if available
- A rough list of assets — bank and brokerage accounts, and especially any co-op shares or condo and how each is titled
- Names and contact details of the distributees and beneficiaries
- Any prior estate-planning documents (trusts, powers of attorney)
Even partial information lets us identify the correct court and the likely process. See the probate process guide to know what comes next.
What to expect
The consultation is informational. We will confirm which borough’s Surrogate’s Court has jurisdiction, outline whether the matter is probate or administration, flag any estate-tax or co-op-transfer issues, and explain the realistic timeline for that court. You will leave knowing your next concrete step.
