What is an independent administration?
This is a simplified probate procedure that is available in certain situations. For instance, the will can contain language commanding that the estate be probated as an independent administration. It involves less court supervision than a “dependent administration”, which is the normal probate procedure. Because an independent administration involves less court supervision, it normally means that less expense is uncured in probating the will.
