“Mr. Brelinski’s deep involvement in the Jackson County community and his expertise in estate planning make him a great fit to serve as public administrator,” Nessel said. “I’m grateful for his ongoing service and dedication to the people of Jackson County.”
County public administrators have powers and duties primarily related to intestate decedent estates where there are apparently no known heirs, including managing the determination, collection, liquidation, and/or distribution of any assets in the estate. Attorneys that serve in this capacity often also have private practice responsibilities that are separate and unrelated to their appointment as a county public administrator.
“County public administrators serve in a position of trust in Michigan’s Probate Court system and perform vital work on behalf of their respective communities,” said State Public Administrator Randi M. Merchant. “The Department is fortunate to have a talented and passionate pool of attorneys that serve in this role across the State, and I am pleased to welcome County Public Administrator Brelinski as the newest member of that team.”
Brelinski is a graduate of Western Michigan University and Wayne State University Law School. He has been in private practice with Curtis, Curtis & Brelinski, P.C. since 2008. Brelinski practices in the areas of estate planning, probate and trust administration and litigation, real estate, business law, and civil litigation. He has served on many Jackson-area boards, and currently serves the Jackson Area Estate Planning Council, Jackson County Brownfield Redevelopment Authority, and the Michigan Advocacy Program.
