Paul S, Sommer has been serving the needs of clients in the areas of estate administration and estate planning for over 35 years. He has extensive experience working with all the Surrogate Courts in the New York City metropolitan area and works closely with executors and trustees in the administration of estates and trusts, including probate proceedings, preparation of federal and New York State estate tax returns, collection and valuation of assets, responding to tax audits, post-mortem tax planning and the settlement of estates and trusts, including the final disposition of estate and trust assets.
