The Probate Process, Step by Step
Understanding what to expect makes the process far less daunting. Here is a clear overview of the five core stages of probate.
Filing the Petition
The process begins by filing a petition with the probate court to open the estate and appoint an executor or administrator.
Notifying Creditors
Creditors and interested parties must be formally notified, giving them an opportunity to make claims against the estate.
Inventorying Assets
All estate assets — real property, bank accounts, investments, and personal property — are identified and appraised.
Paying Debts & Taxes
Valid creditor claims, outstanding debts, and any estate taxes are paid from estate funds before distribution.
Distributing the Estate
Once all obligations are settled, remaining assets are distributed to beneficiaries according to the will or state law.
