Who We Serve
Morgan Legal Group helps Manhattan (New York County) residents and families whose estates are administered through the New York County Surrogate’s Court at 31 Chambers Street, New York, NY 10007. Whether you own a prewar co-op on the Upper West Side, a condo in Tribeca, or a townhouse in Harlem, your plan should reflect Manhattan’s specific realities — co-op share transfers, condo title, and the New York estate tax cliff.
What to Expect and What to Bring
To make the most of your consultation, it helps to gather:
- A rough list of your assets — co-op shares or condo, bank and brokerage accounts, retirement plans, business interests.
- Any existing documents — a current will, trust, power of attorney, or health care proxy.
- Your goals — who you want to inherit, concerns about co-op boards, estate-tax worries, incapacity planning.
- Questions — bring them; the FAQ is a good place to start.
We’ll talk through where you stand and outline practical next steps, whether that’s a will, a revocable trust, or incapacity documents.
