Currently 20 estates in various stages of administration from probate to IRS tax court, 40 trusts with regular administration and during tax season, 100 trusts requiring the filing of fiduciary income tax returns, just a couple of trusts with the preparation of annual schedules of account and add on transfer of assets for estate planning clients
20-30 sounds like a dream. I hover around 65-70 probate & guardianship cases (plus any random cases he decides to take including an eviction now *insert eyeroll*). I don't have time to actually communicate and build a relationship with clients if I'm being pushed to file new apps every week (every day most days).
Build automations, show clients a little more attention; don't take more clients if you already feel at capacity! I was at capacity and asked my atty if we can take a two week break from new client consults for me to catch up. He said no. Now I'm two weeks turnaround on docs/filings and he "doesn't want to slow down".
Appreciate what you have. Sounds like you got a good thing going right now.
I’m currently at a case load of 137 cases, mixed with regular probates and conservatorship, and contested matters.
Honestly! It’s so busy and not something you can juat work 4 hours a day and stay up on your case load. It’s so much fun though. I love the craziness.
