Frequently asked questions

Clear answers to common probate questions.

What is probate?

Probate is the court supervised process used to settle a person’s estate after death. It involves validating a will, paying debts and taxes, and distributing remaining assets to heirs.

Is probate always required?

Not always. Some estates qualify for simplified procedures, and certain assets such as those held in a trust or with named beneficiaries may avoid probate entirely.

How long does probate take?

Probate timelines vary by estate size and complexity. Many cases take several months, while contested or complex estates can take a year or longer.

What happens if there is no will?

If someone passes away without a will, the estate is distributed according to state intestacy laws. The court appoints an administrator to handle the probate process.

Do I need a lawyer to go through probate?

While not always required, working with a probate attorney can help avoid delays, reduce stress, and ensure all legal requirements are properly handled.
