How Do I Obtain Letters of Administration in Maryland?

It’s possible you’ve asked this question because someone has passed away and the insurance company will not work with you until you have the letters of administration. Or a bank. Or a creditor. Or a landlord. Or a spouse. There are any number of people and institutions that will not communicate critical information to you about the decedents estate until you have letters of administration.

Before the letters of administration will be issued you must first have an estate opened in the decedent’s name in the county where they resided or had a legally significant connection (typically land). The county, or city, will require a Petition, bond (perhaps), death certificate and other information pertaining to the estate before they will open and issue the letters.

For a free, confidential conversation to discuss this and other estate administration matters, including probate administration legal services, contact Maryland probate administration attorney Stephen J. Reichert at 410-299-4959, sreichert@reichertlegal.com or by clicking here.

Mr. Reichert can administer probate on behalf of the estate or for a modest fee he can be of assistance to the Personal Representative, as assistance is needed. For example, he can be available to give the correct legal answer and review or prepare probate filings before they are submitted to the county.

Day, evening and weekend appointments are available in office or at your residence. Mr. Reichert personally serves probate clients throughout the entire state of Maryland.

Stephen looks forward to assisting you with your Maryland probate needs.
