Probate is a term many have heard but few understand – until they have to go through it. Probate is the process by which a court distributes the assets of a deceased individual’s estate. The time and expense involved varies by the value of the estate and the state in which it resides. Whether or not someone has a will, probate will occur. But having a will can help reduce the length of time.
