When a person passes away, inheriting their property and other assets in their estate may require a family to go through a formal administration process in probate court, wherein the court oversees the management of the estate and the ultimate distribution of the assets. This process can be extremely lengthy, expensive, and emotionally taxing endeavor for a deceased person’s loved ones to endure. Fortunately, avoiding probate court is doable, if a person puts in place certain measures prior to their passing to ensure the smooth transition of their possessions to the people they choose. This is typically accomplished by creating a thorough estate plan with the assistance of a professional probate attorney.
