What Is Probate?

Is Probate Court Necessary?

Probate is a necessary process so that the decedent’s beneficiaries can get the assets the decedent intended. If the decedent left a will that is admitted to probate court, the court process will allow the beneficiaries to take ownership of the assets.

If the decedent did not have a will, probate court is required to determine who the beneficiaries are and how the property will be passed to them. Because the decedent didn’t leave legal stipulations, the assets and beneficiaries have to be determined by the law. An experienced probate lawyer will help.
