What is Probate Administration?
Probate administration is the legal process that manages the estate of a deceased person, ensuring that their assets are distributed according to their will or, if no will is present, in accordance with state law. This process involves validating the will, paying any outstanding debts and taxes, and finally, distributing the remaining assets to the rightful heirs or beneficiaries.
While probate is sometimes necessary, it can be a lengthy and sometimes contentious process. At Maddox & Davis Law Firm, we offer expert legal guidance throughout every step of probate administration. We help simplify the process, resolve disputes, and ensure that the estate is handled in compliance with the law.
