Estate Probate
Estate Probates, Small Estates & Voluntary Administrations
When someone dies with their Estate properly arranged before their death, the Probate process CAN be somewhat simple, depending on the size of the Estate.
SOME Estates with assets greater than $50,000 need to be handled by an attorney, but it IS NOT necessary.
However, a Small Estate or Voluntary Administration can be done by the Executor. The paperwork is still difficult and we can help with that process.
