The Massachusetts Bar Association’s Probate Law Section Council is compiling a list of helpful practice approaches for lawyers who specialize in this unique area of law.

This survey is anonymous, and we welcome your continued participation. We believe your responses will provide valuable professional insights to fellow section members.
