How can I tell if I need an attorney for Probate?

If you’ve read the instructions and realize you don’t understand how to do the paperwork or comply with the rules, then you should get help from an attorney.  If you have questions you need answered  and advise here and there, you can do so through a consulting relationship.  Also, if you’re feeling overwhelmed or find it emotionally difficult to follow the process, an attorney can help you get through the process either by consulting with you or doing the heavy lifting of being retained counsel.
