Succession cases in Gretna are filed at the 24th Judicial District Court, which serves Jefferson Parish. While this court is just down the road, probate delays are still common—especially for families trying to navigate the process alone.
Here’s how families in Gretna can avoid unnecessary slowdowns:
1. Submitting Incomplete Paperwork
The Gretna courthouse has strict document standards. We make sure every pleading—heirship info, property lists, legal notices—is accurate and ready for court approval the first time.
2. Family Disagreements
Even small disagreements about who should serve as administrator or how assets are split can stall the process. We help families resolve issues early and, if needed, step in as neutral administrators.
3. Misunderstanding Court Procedure
While probate is a legal process, it also has local quirks. Our Gretna legal team knows what the court expects—ensuring smooth filings and no unnecessary returns.
4. DIY Delays
Many people attempt to handle probate on their own and quickly realize it’s more complicated than expected. We take care of everything from start to finish.
