What Is Probate?

Probate is the legal process through which a court validates a will, when applicable, and authorizes the administration and distribution of a deceased person’s estate. The process may involve identifying assets, addressing outstanding debts and obligations, notifying beneficiaries, and distributing remaining property according to the will or applicable state law.

The requirements and procedures can vary depending on the estate, the location of the assets, and whether disputes arise.
