Probate Attorney Providing Experienced Guidance And Representation
Eldersburg Probate Lawyer For Families Throughout The Baltimore Area
Probate is the legal process for settling a loved one’s estate. In Maryland, whether your loved one had a valid will in place or not, chances are the estate must go through the probate process to ensure the orderly succession of assets to surviving family members and beneficiaries.
Unfortunately, trying to deal with probate matters during a time of grieving can be extremely difficult. We understand that this can be an emotional time for families in Carroll County. At the Law Office of Leo J. Keenan III, P.A., we provide counsel and support to help you through the probate process. We have more than 35 years of experience helping surviving spouses and family members through the probate administration process.
We are proud to have been serving Eldersburg and surrounding communities since 2005, providing personalized attention and quality service to each of our clients. We are committed to honesty, transparency and professionalism in all our interactions with clients. We believe in excellent communication and are committed to keeping them informed throughout the probate process.
Our Probate Services
We counsel our clients in dividing assets of the deceased and resolving disputes among the survivors. Our seasoned attorney, Leo J. Keenan III, has over three decades of experience and takes a compassionate and detail-oriented approach to ensure your loved one’s estate is settled fairly and effectively.
We offer a range of services to help guide clients through estate administration, including:
- Collecting and valuing assets

With diligent care, we will collect the deceased person’s property and income in order to pay any remaining taxes, claims or debts.
