How Long Does Probate Take?
Many people who come to our probate lawyers for assistance ask us how long the process takes. The timeline varies from one case to another, but generally speaking, the answer depends on the type of probate used:
- Summary probate (which can generally be used when either the estate is less than $75,000 or the decedent has been dead for more than two years) usually takes one to two months.
- Formal probate (which generally must be used when the estate is at least $75,000 and the decedent has been dead less than two years) usually takes at least six months.
Other factors can affect the duration of probate, too—for example, when an heir contests a will or creditors make claims against an estate, it typically requires extra time.
