Probate & Estate Planning Attorney

Losing a loved one is hard enough without navigating Indiana’s probate court on top of it. At Lubanski Law, Attorney Nicholas Lubanski guides families in Indianapolis, Noblesville, Connersville, Richmond, Winchester, Liberty, and every town in between through probate, estate administration, and proactive estate planning, with direct access to your attorney at every step, not a paralegal or call center.

Probate Administration

If a loved one passed away with property in their name alone, their estate typically needs to go through Indiana’s probate process. Indiana law allows a simplified small estate affidavit when the estate’s value is $100,000 or less, which can save significant time compared to full supervised probate. Nick can help you determine which process fits your situation and walk you through opening the estate, notifying creditors, and distributing assets.

Wills, Trusts & Powers of Attorney

Whether you’re starting from scratch or updating an old plan, Lubanski Law drafts wills, trusts, healthcare and financial powers of attorney, and guardianship documents tailored to Indiana law, built to actually hold up when your family needs them.

Guardianship

For families caring for a minor or an incapacitated adult relative, Nick can help you petition the court for legal guardianship of the person, the estate, or both. Indiana recognizes full and limited guardianships, as well as temporary emergency guardianships for urgent situations, and appointed guardians take on ongoing reporting duties to the court once appointed.

Serving Rural and Smaller Communities

Clients in Fayette, Wayne, Randolph, and Union counties often assume big-city representation is their only option. Lubanski Law offers phone and video consultations and a straightforward, transparent approach to fees, so families outside Indianapolis get the same direct access to their attorney without the long drive.
