Schedule directly: calendly.com/russel-morgan/30min
Pick a time that works for you. The initial consultation is an orientation — we map your situation to the right county court and the right documents, and you leave knowing your next step.
Service area
We serve clients throughout New York State. Because probate venue follows the decedent’s domicile (SCPA 205), your estate’s court depends on where you live:
| If you’re in… | Your Surrogate’s Court |
|---|---|
| Manhattan | New York County — 31 Chambers Street |
| Brooklyn | Kings County |
| Queens | Queens County |
| The Bronx | Bronx County |
| Staten Island | Richmond County |
| Long Island | Nassau (Mineola) or Suffolk (Riverhead) |
See the New York estate guide to confirm which court governs your estate.
What to bring to your consultation
- A rough list of your assets and how each is titled (sole, joint, beneficiary-designated, trust-held)
- Any existing will, trust, power of attorney, or health care proxy
- For an estate you’re administering: the death certificate, the original will, and a list of heirs
- Your questions — about the estate-tax cliff, trusts, or executor duties
A little preparation lets us give you concrete guidance in the first 30 minutes.

Getting to the right court
If you’ll be filing in person, the literal “New York County” Surrogate’s Court is at 31 Chambers Street, New York, NY 10007, near the Chambers Street and Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall transit stops. Remember: that court serves Manhattan estates only — other boroughs and counties file elsewhere. We’ll confirm the correct courthouse for your matter.
