You Don't Need to Face Probate Alone

When a loved one passes away, the last thing you want to worry about is paperwork, court filings, or dividing assets. But for most families, probate is a necessary part of settling an estate—even if your loved one left a Will.

At Olsen Crecelius Legal Group, we’re here to make the process as simple, smooth, and stress-free as possible. From our office in Cheyenne, we serve families across Wyoming with experienced, full-service probate representation. We offer flat-fee billing whenever possible, so you can move forward without worrying about hidden costs or unexpected legal fees.

What Exactly Is Probate?

Probate is the legal process of settling a person’s estate after they pass away. It can include validating a will, identifying and valuing assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing property to heirs. In Wyoming, this process varies depending on the size and complexity of the estate, but even straightforward cases can involve deadlines, legal filings, and court oversight.

Our role is to take that burden off your shoulders. We handle the paperwork, guide you through your responsibilities as a personal representative or executor, and make sure the estate is administered following Wyoming law.

Do You Need Probate?

Not every estate requires formal probate. We help you determine the most suitable route, whether that’s:

Small Estate Affidavit

A faster option for estates with only personal property valued at $400,000 or less

Summary Probate

Often used for smaller, simpler estates that include real property and meet specific criteria
Necessary for larger estates, disputes, or more complex circumstances

If you’re not sure which path applies to you, we’ll help you figure it out. We also assist with out-of-state heirs, multiple beneficiaries, and estates with business interests or real estate.
