What is death probate?
When you think about it, probate is not difficult to understand. At your death, your assets need to be distributed to your heirs, your debts need to be paid, and any loose ends need to be looked after. Obviously, you can’t sign the deeds, write the checks, or handle your business affairs after you are gone. The probate court takes over those duties. The probate process is a long, complicated, officious nightmare for most families.
