Probate is the legal process for distributing a deceased person's assets and settling debts. It includes validating the will, appointing an executor, and resolving estate claims. The complexity varies based on the estate's size and circumstances. Careful navigation of state laws and court procedures is essential to honor the loved one’s wishes and ensure beneficiaries receive their inheritances. Professional guidance can simplify this process, offering peace of mind during a difficult time.
