What is Probate and Estate Administration?
One of the most common questions clients have is "what is probate and estate administration?"
Probate is the legal process by which wills and trusts are proved to be valid, and decedents' debts are paid and assets distributed to their heirs after they die. Determining heirs and devisees is a process to transfer title and clear title, from decedents to their spouse, children, and other heirs when there is no will or when assets have been omitted from probate.
Estate administration includes the probate process as well as non-probate transfers of the deceased's assets, and generally includes collecting all of the decedent's assets, liquidating his or her liabilities, paying necessary taxes (if any), and distributing property to family members and other beneficiaries.
