What is a Probate Court Administration?
A Probate Court administration is the legal process through which the court sees that, when you become incapacitated or die, your debts are paid and your assets are properly handled or distributed according to your Last Will and Testament or under state law if you do not have a Last Will and Testament. A Probate Court Administration can be expensive, and if you own property in other states, your family could face multiple probates, each one according to the laws in that state. A Probate Court Administration takes time and is a public process, so any “interested party” can see what you owned and who you owed. The process “invites” disgruntled heirs to contest your will and can expose your family to unscrupulous solicitors.
