Probate Tips Are Not Advice

Going through Probate is stressful enough if you know what you are doing. If you haven't been through the process it can be overwhelming. The period of time following the death of someone close to you is difficult enough without any added pressure.

However, the State has mandates and schedules that you are required to follow after someone passes to satisfy taxes, debts, and the disbursement of proceeds. There are many professionals in the area to assist you in the process. Most notably are probate attorneys. Then there are companies that perform estate sales, home cleanouts, and contractors who fix what needs to be done to get a home ready for sale.
