Many families are surprised to learn that even with a valid will, assets don’t always transfer automatically. In many cases, probate administration is still required to ensure everything is handled correctly.
Probate administration is the court-supervised process that helps:
• Verify a will
• Identify heirs and beneficiaries
• Gather and inventory estate assets
• Notify creditors and review claims
• Distribute property according to the will or, when there is no will, state law
