(MENAFNEditorial) What is Probate and Probate Court? A common question asked by many. Probate is one manner in which estate assets are transferred after death. Since probate can be a lengthy costly and public process many people choose to avoid it.
Without proper probate avoidance planning the state will require a probate court proceeding for state residents or those who owned assets in the state. During probate assets are managed debts are paid tax returns are filed along with various court documents and the estate assets are distributed.
