Plan And Protect Law Firm Will Help You Navigate Probate with Confidence

You Might Be wondering...

What is Probate?

Probate is the legal process that is often required for handling a deceased person's estate. A decedent's assets may have to go through probate when the assets are valued at or over a certain amount, they are owned solely in the decedent’s name, and no legal mechanism such as a living trust or a pay on death deed or account exists to bypass the probate process.

Do I Need An Attorney For Probate?

Probate involves many steps that must be handled in a precise way, and in a precise order. Navigating the legal complexities of probate after losing a loved one can be overwhelming. At Plan and Protect Law Firm, we understand the challenges you face, and our attorneys are here to help guide you through the probate process with compassion and expertise if you find you need help along the way.

The Probate Process Typically Centers On Three Primary Objectives:

Identifying and Gathering Assets

This includes locating all the decedent's assets, such as property, bank accounts, and
investments.

Paying Outstanding Debts

The estate is responsible for settling any outstanding debts owed by the decedent,
including taxes and creditor claims.

Distributing Remaining Assets

Once debts are settled, the remaining assets are distributed to beneficiaries in
accordance with the decedent's will or state law if no will exists.
