What is a Probate?

Probate is the legal process that regulates the transfer of assets to heirs after a person passes away. In California, a Trust will avoid Probate.  However, if a person's assets do not total more than $100,000, then the estate may not need to go into a standard Probate.  For assets under $100,000 the courts have allowed for a simpler process that is much quicker.                      

For a FREE initial consultation to determine if a Probate is necessary or to begin the Probate process, please contact Legal Action Workshop's Los Angeles Probate Lawyers today.

Probate can occur if a person has a will or does not have a will.  If the decedent has a will, then the Attorney will determine whether it is valid and is an honest statement about how the assets should be distributed after death.  If there is no will, then the closest relative(s) will receive the assets.  The Attorney will speak with the closest relative(s) about the decedent's property.  This property would need to be identified, inventoried and appraised, in order to determine the true value at the time of death.  Debts and taxes will also need to be assessed.

The California Probate lawyers at Legal Action Workshop represent the people who receive the assets. They also represent the person(s) who is named in the will to Probate the estate, or a close family member who petitions the court to be in charge of the Probate process.  A beneficiary is a person who is named in a will to receive the assets.  An heir is a person who receives assets when there is no will.  An administrator is a person who petitions the court to be in charge of the Probate process. An executor is a person who is named in the will to be in charge of the Probate process.
