that you are permitted to retain probate counsel (even though you are probate counsel) to make sure you have an outside objective view on how to proceed. I wouldn’t pass up an opportunity to pick Bruce’s brain on this. I imagine he has a ton of experience
with these sorts of cases. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have been recruited to serve as a PR in that circumstance many times. You definitely need to be aware of the typical view of the PI lawyer of a probate and a probate administrator’s view. Wide cultural differences between PI lawyers
and probate lawyers. Potential administrative malpractice issues that are not on the radar of a PI lawyer.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have been asked to open a probate for the sole purpose of allowing the PR to bring a wrongful death suit. There are no assets and no known debts. This is the first time I will open a probate for this purpose, and I’d like to talk to someone
who has been through the process before. Is there anyone who is willing to share their wisdom? Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
