What is the Probate Process?

Probate can be a lengthy process, and it typically involves court-managed administrations if there was no will or trust left by the deceased individual.

If you have found yourself in the probate process, you can generally expect the following:

A notification will be delivered to individuals that an existing will names, or if no will exists, a list of next-of-kin will be provided and they will receive notification of the probate process
The probate court will appoint an executor or administrator for the estate in question
A court-appointed individual will oversee the inventory, appraisal, and sale of assets in the estate
Payment received from the sale of the estates will be used to pay off debts and taxes in the appropriate states
Remaining assets will be distributed amount heirs or next-of-kin
