Ask Simon from New York
Simon first separates the New York file from the Swedish estate. He identifies which Swedish estate inventory, authority, bank, property, or distribution step remains and gives the U.S. adviser a clear Swedish workstream to coordinate with.
New York families often need clear separation between a New York probate or adviser relationship and the Swedish estate work required by Swedish banks, heirs, property records, or estate-distribution documents.
New York is usually six hours behind Sweden, so morning calls in New York often work well as afternoon calls in Sweden.

City pages in New York
Each city page adds practical context while keeping the same Swedish-law scope and no-U.S.-office disclaimer.
City focus
New York City is often a coordination point: a family member may live in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, or Long Island while Swedish banks, heirs, or estate documents sit across the Atlantic.
Read the New York City pageLocal context
Families in New York City, Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, and nearby areas may be coordinating Swedish estate documents while also speaking with a New York attorney, financial adviser, accountant, or family representative.
Heirs in Long Island or Westchester often want a remote first call, a clear document checklist, and an explanation of whether Swedish banks need a bouppteckning, power of attorney, certified copy, or translation.
Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse families may have the same Swedish inheritance questions even when the Swedish connection is a parent, grandparent, summer property, bank account, or old estate document abroad.
Scope boundary
Simon handles Swedish inheritance law and the agreed Swedish estate work from Stockholm. The firm does not claim a New York office or New York bar admission. New York probate, tax, estate-planning, real-estate, litigation, and family-law questions remain with appropriately licensed or qualified U.S. advisers.
