What Is the Purpose of Probate Law?
The goal of probate law is to divide the deceased person’s assets and pay their debts. Usually, the probate process will involve notifying creditors, paying taxes, solving any disputes around the will or assets, and providing the family with guidance on how to distribute the estate if there is no will present. While the court does its best to go through the process smoothly, conflicts still often arise. The average probate will take between six and nine months, but complications can make the process last much longer.
