When Is Probate Necessary?

Probate involves validating the deceased’s will (if one exists), settling outstanding debts, paying taxes, and distributing assets to beneficiaries. While probate is intended to ensure the orderly transfer of assets, it can be a lengthy and complex process, particularly when disputes arise or the estate is large and intricate.



Probate is generally required when a person dies with assets in their name alone. These assets, which are not jointly owned or do not have a designated beneficiary, must go through probate before they can be transferred to heirs. The process may vary depending on whether the deceased left a valid will or passed away intestate (without a will).

Avoiding Common Probate Challenges

Probate can present various challenges, such as unclear or contested wills, creditor disputes, or delays caused by administrative errors. At Vexillum Law, our experienced attorneys anticipate and address potential issues, minimizing delays and ensuring a smoother process. For those looking to avoid probate altogether, we also offer estate planning services, including the creation of living trusts and other strategies that allow assets to pass directly to beneficiaries without court involvement.
