Successions in Livingston Parish

Livingston Parish is a fast-growing parish in the Baton Rouge metro and I-12 corridor, with the town of Livingston as its parish seat and Denham Springs as its largest city. Probate and successions are filed in the 21st Judicial District Court at the Livingston Parish Courthouse in Livingston. The 21st JDC also serves St. Helena and Tangipahoa Parishes; Livingston matters are handled at the Livingston courthouse.
Livingston successions are dominated by suburban homestead and family-land cases in the booming I-12 corridor, where heirs frequently need to sell or refinance an inherited home. The parish is also home to one of the two LIGO gravitational-wave observatories. Estates often span Livingston plus East Baton Rouge or Tangipahoa.

The property is in Livingston and East Baton Rouge. Where do we file?

The succession is filed in the parish of domicile, and the Judgment of Possession is recorded in each parish where immovable property is located. We coordinate filings across all parishes.

Not the procedure itself. If insurance or rebuilding proceeds are payable to the estate, they pass through succession; we make sure the Judgment of Possession lets the heirs receive and clear title to the rebuilt home.
