Alix works cohesively with outside attorneys and financial advisors. While lawyers can be helpful in some situations, there are many aspects of the estate settlement process that they do not address, for example sitting on the phone with banks, helping find an appraiser for fine china, estate taxes, and more. The Alix experts have been helping families settle estates for many years and can provide expert guidance and support across a whole range of situations. Alix can also make referrals back to your preferred professional contacts, enhancing your relationship.
