Service area
Morgan Legal Group advises New Yorkers on estate planning and probate across the state. Because venue follows domicile under SCPA 205-206, we routinely work with the New York County Surrogate’s Court (31 Chambers Street, New York, NY 10007) for Manhattan residents, as well as the Surrogate’s Courts of the other boroughs and counties where our clients are domiciled. If you’re unsure which court applies to you, that’s exactly what the consultation resolves — see our New York estate guide for the disambiguation.
What to expect and what to bring
To make the most of your 30 minutes, have ready (where applicable):
- A rough list of your assets and roughly how each is titled (sole, joint, beneficiary-designated, in trust)
- Any existing will, trust, power of attorney, or health care proxy
- For probate matters: the death certificate and the original will, if you have it
- Your main questions — whether about the estate tax cliff, a co-op or home transfer, or executor duties
You’ll leave the call knowing which documents you need, which Surrogate’s Court is involved, and what the next concrete step is.

Hours and response expectations
Consultations are scheduled through the booking link above, so you choose a time that works. For general inquiries submitted online, expect a response within one to two business days. Time-sensitive probate deadlines (such as the SCPA 1802 creditor-claim period) should be raised promptly so they can be addressed before any deadline passes.
Finding the court
If your matter involves the New York County Surrogate’s Court, the courthouse is at 31 Chambers Street in Lower Manhattan, at the corner of Chambers and Centre Streets, near City Hall. Residents of other counties should file in their own county’s Surrogate’s Court — see the Surrogate’s Court page and our probate process guide for details.
