Happy Wednesday, Listmates,

First, I want to thank this group for all the help they have given me; I have never seen another group like this, at least in my years of practice, so thank you.

I will be representing the respondent in an upcoming SCPA § 2103 examination in Surrogate’s Court (my first one) and would welcome input from anyone with experience handling these proceedings, particularly from the respondent’s perspective.

I would appreciate any practical tips on preparing for the examination, handling objections, and protecting the respondent’s interests.

If you have handled similar examinations, I would be especially grateful for any strategic recommendations, lessons learned, or pitfalls to avoid. Even a few brief pointers would be incredibly helpful. Please feel free to respond privately if you prefer.

Thank you in advance for your time and generosity. I truly appreciate any guidance you can share.

Sincerely,

Joseph D. Turano

Attorney at Law
