Joseph,

I responded to Peter privately, but I will reply to all now:

I recently submitted a probate petition on 3/16 and the decree was issued on 4/20. Everyone signed waivers. No issues.

The Court is improving under new leadership.

For probate attorneys:

For straightforward estate (co-op unit, bank and brokerage account), what is the typical time frame to obtain Letters Testamentary in New York county or Nassau County?

Thanks in advance,
