Probate
Compassionate Guidance Through the Probate Process
Losing a loved one is difficult enough without the added stress of navigating legal and financial responsibilities.
During an already emotional time, families are often faced with unfamiliar tasks, court requirements, paperwork, financial questions, and difficult decisions — all while grieving.
At LMC Law, we help Vermont families navigate the probate process with compassion, clarity, and practical guidance so they do not have to face it alone.
What Is Probate?
Probate is the legal process of settling a person’s estate after they pass away.
This process may include:
Validating a will
Identifying and valuing assets
Paying debts and taxes
Managing court filings
Distributing property to beneficiaries
Because probate involves legal procedures and deadlines, many families feel overwhelmed by the responsibilities involved — especially during a time of loss.
We are here to help simplify the process and guide you through each step.
Support During a Difficult Time
Many people responsible for handling a loved one’s estate have never gone through probate before.
It is common to feel:
Uncertain about what needs to happen next
Overwhelmed by paperwork and responsibilities

Kind words
“I cannot thank LMC Law and Attorney Lisa Campion enough for their help with my late aunt’s estate. The probate process was especially challenging due an outdated will and the passing of several beneficiaries. Lisa and company were clear, organized, and responsive to all my questions. They took a massive burden off my shoulders by handling all the court filings and assisting with asset distributions. I am so grateful for their expertise and highly recommend them to anyone dealing with estate administration."
