Probate Administrator Los Angeles
In Los Angeles, a probate administrator may be appointed by the Superior Court when someone passes away without a will or without a named executor able to serve. In such cases, the court issues Letters of Administration, granting legal authority to a neutral third party to manage the decedent’s estate. This includes collecting assets, settling debts, and distributing remaining property to rightful heirs or beneficiaries in accordance with California probate law.
At FedReceiver, we have extensive experience handling probate matters throughout Los Angeles County. Stephen Donell has served as a court-appointed third-party probate administrator in Los Angeles, providing impartial estate management and reporting directly to the probate court. Our team ensures every step of the process is completed with transparency, timeliness, and compliance.

Reviving the Financially Distressed Business
Reviving The Financially Distressed Business is the essential guide for business owners and corporate leaders whose companies are under—or anticipating—financial difficulties. See Chapter 11, Receiverships, written by Court Receiver Stephen Donell, CCIM, CPM
