Probate is the legal process of validating a will, settling debts, and distributing a deceased person’s assets under court supervision.
Not always. Some assets-like those held in a trust or with named beneficiaries-may pass outside probate. We’ll help you understand what applies.
If a person dies without a will (intestate), the estate is still probated-but the court follows Pennsylvania’s laws to determine who inherits.
Executors must file paperwork, notify heirs, manage assets, pay debts and taxes, and distribute remaining property according to the will.
It varies-simple cases may take a few months; complex ones can take a year or more. We’ll help move the process forward efficiently.
At Miller Law Firm PC, you’ll have a trusted guide through every step of Pennsylvania’s probate process.
