Probate is the process that takes place after someone dies. Probate typically includes:

  • proving in court that the deceased's will is valid and real
  • identifying/inventorying the deceased person's property  and their assets
  • having the property appraised  by a profesional
  • paying any of the deceased's unpaid debts or taxes
  • distributing the remaining property as the will directs. If there is no will, state law dictates what happens to the deceased's assets and property.
