What is the recommended approach for finding a good, reasonably priced, experienced estate lawyer to handle probate? My elderly DF is in bad health, and I'd like to start the search sooner rather than later, since I don't want to pick someone in a rush when stress and emotions are running high. DF's estate is quite basic, with a simple will that divides everything evenly between me and my siblings. Just some bank and brokerage accounts and real estate (vacation home), so it should be easy, straightforward work for any competent lawyer.
I honestly have no idea where to even begin to look for an estate lawyer other than asking certain friends or family members for their recommendations. Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.
