Legacy Harbor Transitions
Probate Guidance & Estate Support

Make probate easier, with someone local in your corner.

Why families choose us

You don't have to do this alone

We know the way

We've walked Ohio families through probate many times. You'll always know what happens next.

Nothing slips

Probate has a lot of small deadlines. We keep track so nothing gets missed.

Local, with backup

You work with someone local who has relationships with trusted vendors around Northeast Ohio, backed by a national network when we need it. Usually at no extra cost to you. You just pay the vendor through the estate.

Less time, less money

Most families come to us worn out. We help you stop losing time and money on the wrong turns.

About

Who you’re working with

Brian and Tonya Barth are Certified Probate Experts in Northeast Ohio. They started Legacy Harbor Transitions to be the steady help families need after losing someone. Most of the families they help are here in the Mahoning Valley and the Akron area, in towns like Youngstown, Boardman, Warren, Kent, and Salem, and the counties nearby.

We’re not attorneys. We handle the practical side of probate, and we know who to call for the rest: the attorney, the CPA, the estate-sale crew, whoever the job needs. Whether you’re an executor who needs a hand, or you’re trying to clear out and sell a parent’s house, that’s the kind of thing we take off your plate.

Wondering about cost?
Connecting you with the right people and walking them through the process is usually at no cost to the estate. A lot of the rest can be billed to the estate. And asking costs nothing. Tell us what’s on your plate.
