What Does the Probate Process Involve?
Will this be your first time administering an estate? If so, don’t worry—our estate lawyers are highly experienced with probate and can walk you through the entire process. We’ll start by determining whether your loved one’s estate qualifies for summary probate or formal probate—summary probate is a more streamlined process that can be used when either the estate is less than $75,000 (not including exempt assets) or the decedent has been dead for more than two years. Timelines vary from one case to another, but summary probate can often be completed in one to two months, while formal probate generally takes at least six months.
Once we’ve determined which approach to use, our probate lawyers will guide you through:
- Establishing that your loved one’s will is valid (if they had one)
- Paying any outstanding debts and taxes
- Distributing the remaining estate property to your loved one’s beneficiaries
We understand that administering a loved one’s estate can sometimes feel overwhelming, so if you ever have any questions or concerns, don’t be afraid to ask. Our estate lawyers will do whatever they can to ease the burden on your shoulders during this difficult time.
