Frequently Asked Questions About Probate

How long does probate take?

The probate process typically takes 6 to 12 months, depending on the complexity of the estate, whether there is a will, and if any disputes arise. Simple estates can be closed within a few months, while contested or high-value estates may take longer. We help speed up the process by handling filings and communication efficiently.

What happens if there’s no will?

If there is no will, the estate is considered “intestate.” This means the court will appoint an administrator and distribute assets based on your state’s inheritance laws. We guide families through this process to ensure everything is handled legally and fairly.

Do all estates go through probate?

No. Not all estates require probate. If assets are jointly owned, placed in a trust, or have named beneficiaries (like life insurance), they may pass outside of probate. During your consultation, we’ll review the estate and let you know what needs to go through probate.

How much does probate cost?

Probate costs vary by state and estate complexity but may include court fees, attorney fees, appraisal fees, and taxes. Our firm offers transparent pricing and flat fee options to make this process affordable and stress-free.

Can I avoid probate?

Yes, probate can often be avoided through proper estate planning—like setting up a living trust, naming beneficiaries, and joint ownership of assets. If you're looking to avoid probate in the future, we also offer estate planning services.

What if someone contests the will?

If a will is contested, the probate process may take longer and involve court hearings. Our attorneys represent clients in will disputes and work to resolve issues quickly, whether through negotiation or litigation.

Do I need a lawyer for probate?

While probate is possible without an attorney, it can be complex and time-consuming. Working with a lawyer ensures legal compliance, helps you avoid mistakes, and gives you peace of mind during a difficult time. Our firm makes probate smooth and stress-free.
