Probating an estate is the legal process of settling a deceased person’s affairs, including distributing assets, paying debts, and handling final taxes.

The process of contesting a will can be both intricate and emotionally draining, involving not just legal issues, but also family matters.

Avoiding probate doesn't always require a trust. Learn about easy, low-cost methods like survivorship deeds and transfer on death designation affidavits to ensure your assets go to your desired beneficiaries without court involvement.
