Debtors, Creditors & Probate in Troy
Helping Resolve Debtor-Creditor Disputes in Oakland County Probate Court

If there are disputes regarding liability, specific amounts owed, availability of liability insurance, or counter claims, settling the estate can become complicated and delayed. The team at Barron, Rosenberg, Mayoras & Mayoras helps clients to resolve matters of debt in an estate.
